How we handle new build mastic in Pembury

If your new home has a leaking shower seal, open skirting joints or untidy sealant, we can help. While the builder’s snagging or warranty period runs, report it to them first. We work on kitchens, show homes and bathrooms & en suites, and the jobs we see most are kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall and sealant that never bonded to the surface.

For a new home in or near Pembury, it’s worth checking the sealant early. Common snags include open skirting joints, lifting shower seals and gaps around frames.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

What happens on the day

On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. A visit to Pembury is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
  2. We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
  3. Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
  4. New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
  5. We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Tell us about any water getting in

Do you cover Pembury for new build mastic?

Yes, Pembury is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.

Can you work from my snagging list?

Yes. Send us the sealant items on the list, with photos if you can, and we will quote. We’ll flag anything that needs another trade.

Do I have to be there?

We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

How do I get a quote for new build mastic in Pembury?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.

Do the sealants smell?

It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.

How long does the job take?

A typical job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. We will confirm how long when we quote.

Should I wait before resealing?

Where water is getting through, do not wait. Small gaps that are just cosmetic can be resealed once movement has slowed.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
  • Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
  • Disputes or warranty claims with your builder

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

Where we work in Pembury

  • Skirting & floors
  • Kitchens
  • Show homes
  • Windows & doors
  • Plot handovers
  • Bathrooms & en suites

Looking after it afterwards

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Raise failed sealant with the developer while you are covered
  • Follow the cure time we give you
  • Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
  • Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone

Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Silicone is normally left for about a day before water reaches them.

A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant and the new finishes intact.

Why act early in Pembury

Running a new bead over the builder’s sealant might look tidy for a few weeks, but it won’t bond to the old layer. Taking it all out and starting again is the only way to get a lasting seal. In an older home around Pembury, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

Why Pembury clients choose us

  • You choose the colour before work begins
  • ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
  • White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting

Windows and doors

Internal joints between frames and plaster often crack as a new house dries. We cut out the cracked bead and reseal with a flexible sealant in a matching colour.

Show homes

Tired or marked sealant in a show home can be renewed. We cut it out and reseal neatly.
