How we handle new build mastic in Nuptown

Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. In both, preparation makes the difference, because that is what rushed new-build sealant normally lacks. If you have gaps opening as the house dries out and settles and leaking shower tray seals in a new home, we can put it right, on kitchens, show homes and plot handovers alike.

For a small place like Nuptown, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

How it works

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. In a small place like Nuptown, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. Each joint is checked for movement before any work starts.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
  3. Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
  4. Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
  5. We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

When to call us in Nuptown

Sealant applied onto damp surfaces does not bond well. On a busy site, joints aren’t always given time to dry first.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
  • New-build shower sealant that has already split
  • Sealant work across a run of new homes
  • Skirting joints opening in the first winter

Around Nuptown, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

How to choose a mastic man

How we quote for new build mastic

Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • The product the joint needs
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with

What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Asking for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • Whether it’s a home or a business

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add pictures by email if you can.

How to look after the new joints

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
  • Record problems with dated pictures
  • Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
  • Watch for new gaps as the house dries out

Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it as they wear the bead.

Report failed sealant to the builder while you’re in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you.

Leave it or put it right?

It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. You get one visit and one clear quote to plan around. Around Nuptown, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

What you get with us

  • Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
  • Neat joints and a tidy finish
  • White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

What the job involves on each surface

Skirting and floors

As timber and screed dry, skirting and floors shift. Caulk cracks; a flexible sealant moves with it painted or coloured to suit.

Plot handovers

Taking time over preparation reduces return visits. Dust from the build is removed first.

Nuptown: your questions answered

Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Is it messy?

No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Should I go to my builder first?

If you’re still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, report it to them first. If they’re slow or the fix doesn’t last, we can help.

When is the sealant fully cured?

Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you.

What do you put in the joint?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Should I try DIY first?

That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
