How we handle new build mastic in Park Street
Some new-home owners let the house settle before resealing. That makes sense for small gaps that are just cosmetic, but a seal that’s letting water through needs doing now. We work on skirting & floors, show homes and windows & doors, and common reasons people get in touch are skirting joints opening in the first winter and internal frame sealant that has split.
In a village or hamlet like Park Street, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Park Street and across Hertfordshire.

Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you are covered
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It helps if anything else comes up during the warranty period.
Do not let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. Once it ends, the repair may be down to you, so raise it early.
What happens if it’s left?
A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it will not bond to the old layer. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Park Street, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
