Honest limits

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
  • Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
  • Damaged fittings that need replacing

If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

New build mastic in Ower

Developers send us the plot schedule and we work through it. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over using the right product for each joint. If you have cracked sealant around new window and door frames and cracks appearing as a new home settles, we can help, whatever the surface.

Work in a small place like Ower just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Ower and across Hampshire.

When to call us in Ower

New homes are full of moisture from plaster, screed and concrete, which takes a year or two to dry out. As it does, timber shrinks and joints open and the sealant has to cope with the movement.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
  • Skirting joints opening in the first winter
  • Cracks appearing as a new home settles
  • Cracked sealant around new window and door frames

If you’ve bought a new home near Totton station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • How long to leave it before use

Our hiring checklist

DIY sealant or a professional job?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

How it works

Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours in a single home. Somewhere as small as Ower, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
  2. Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out, with no layer left behind.
  3. We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
  4. Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
  5. Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Common questions in Ower

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Totton station?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Is Ower within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we’re fully insured.

How long should I leave it?

That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you.

Can you do plot mastic on a new development?

Yes. We take on second-fix sealant work across new plots. We clean and prime joints properly to keep callbacks down.

How much does new build mastic cost in Ower?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.

Where are you based?

We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Ower.

Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?

New homes dry out and move in their first couple of years, and sealant is often applied quickly onto dusty surfaces. Either can make it fail early.

Why deal with it now?

For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Every return visit for a failed seal takes time, and they’re avoidable with good preparation. Older cottages and farmhouses around Ower can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before we start.

  • 12-month guarantee on every job
  • Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild

Take a look at what affects the cost or what customers say.

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.

Kitchens

New-kitchen sealant is often applied in a rush. We remove it and reseal with a kitchen-suitable sealant.
