Need new build mastic in Penton Corner?

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Broken tiles or a split tray
  • Cracking that points to a structural problem
  • Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Kitchens
  • Bathrooms & en suites

  • Show homes
  • Plot handovers

How we handle new build mastic in Penton Corner

Developers send us the plot schedule and we work through it. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover. We work on bathrooms & en suites, plot handovers and skirting & floors, and the jobs we see most are sealant work across a run of new homes and frame joints opening as the plaster dries.

Around Penton Corner, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Common questions in Penton Corner

Do you work for landlords with property near Andover station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.

Is Penton Corner within the area you cover?

Yes. Penton Corner is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Penton Corner.

Can you do plot mastic on a new development?

Yes. We work through plots to your schedule, room by room. Tell us the plots and the joints involved and we will quote.

Will there be a smell?

That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.

What does new build mastic cost?

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing and where.

Do you use white or clear sealant?

The colour is chosen to suit the tiles, worktop or frame. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Aftercare tips

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
  • Follow the cure time we give you
  • Record problems with dated photos
  • Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years

Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it, which can damage the surface.

Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Dealing with it before it goes black saves a harder job later.

What affects the quote in Penton Corner

Your quote is based on your job. We look at:

  • Whether the work is at height
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Any mould that needs treating

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.

Helping us quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • The type of property

Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we will talk you through the work and give you a clear price.

How the visit works

When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. Most jobs take a few hours in a single home. In a small place like Penton Corner, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
  2. The failed sealant is removed completely, with no layer left behind.
  3. Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
  4. We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
  5. We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Signs you need new build mastic in Penton Corner

Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Both fail early.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
  • Internal frame sealant that has split
  • Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
  • Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles

For new homes near Andover station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
