Leave it or put it right?
Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. In a small place like Peckham Bush, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Peckham Bush

New build mastic for homes and businesses in Peckham Bush
Some new-home owners let the house settle before resealing. For small cosmetic gaps, that’s reasonable, but a failed shower or bath seal shouldn’t wait. If you are dealing with kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall and sealant that never bonded to the surface, we can help, whatever the surface.
Work in a small place like Peckham Bush just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we have gone.

What sealant do you use?

My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?
Start with your builder while their snagging or warranty period runs. After that, or if their repair keeps failing, we can do it with our one-year guarantee.
How long before the joint can be used?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you.
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 rushed onto dusty, unprimed surfaces. Either can make it fail early.
What does new build mastic cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Most silicones need around a day.
The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak in a busy bathroom.

Advice
Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
- A tray or bath that is not properly supported, until it’s fixed
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor

Windows and doors
The gap between a new frame and its plaster reveal often opens up. We remove cracked sealant and apply a flexible one that suits the frame.
Skirting and floors
New homes often develop a gap between skirting and floor. A flexible sealant closes it without cracking like caulk.
