Do I need to be at home?

Can you do plot mastic on a new development?
Yes. We seal plots to the developer’s programme ready for handover. Tell us the plots and the joints involved for a clear quote.

Yes, regularly. We can quote for several properties at once, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
New build mastic in Pedlars End, done properly
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. Each joint is cleaned of dust and primed where the product calls for it, so the new bead bonds properly rather than sitting on a layer of grit. If you are dealing with cracked sealant around new window and door frames and beads laid onto grit and dust from the build, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Pedlars End, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces

The process
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work starts. Most jobs take a few hours in a single home. In a small place like Pedlars End, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- The failed sealant is removed completely down to clean surfaces.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Surface by surface
Kitchens

A draught at a new window can be a missed or failed joint. We look at the joints and reseal where needed.
How we quote for new build mastic
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The size of the job
- The number of rooms or windows
- Any working-time requirements on site
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- If someone has resealed it before
- How we’d reach the joints
- Where the property is
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
When something else is needed
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.
