What the job involves on each surface
Bathrooms and en suites
En suite seals are easy to miss on a snagging list until they leak. Resealing properly keeps water where it belongs.
Windows and doors
Draughts around new frames are often a sealant gap. We check and reseal the frame edges.
New build mastic in Parkhurst, done properly
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. 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 leaking shower tray seals in a new home and messy sealant that spoils new finishes, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Parkhurst, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

The process
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours in a single home in most cases. In a small place like Parkhurst, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- Each area is checked and left with its cure time.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Advice
What happens if it’s left?
DIY kits don’t solve the main problems with new-build sealant: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Cutting out, cleaning and priming are what make the difference. Older cottages and farmhouses around Parkhurst can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What you get with us
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet

Questions from Parkhurst
Is Parkhurst in your area for new build mastic?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Parkhurst is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Will you come out to Parkhurst?
Yes, Parkhurst is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We are based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Do you use white or clear sealant?
It depends on the joint: white or clear for most sanitary joints, colours for worktops, floors and frames. We agree the colour before we start.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
- Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray while the sealant cures. Report any movement in a bath or tray.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you’re in the snagging period. Once it ends, the repair may be down to you, so raise it early.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Parkhurst
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
What new build mastic looks like in Parkhurst
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Whether the job is in Parkhurst itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish. In and around Parkhurst, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
