New build mastic for Queen Street homes and businesses

New build mastic for homes and businesses in Queen Street

We work in new homes and on new-build sites across Queen Street. Whether it’s one en suite or a run of plots, the method is the same: cut out, clean, prime where needed and reseal neatly. We work on plot handovers, show homes and skirting & floors, and common reasons people get in touch are frame joints opening as the plaster dries and sealant work across a run of new homes.

In a village or hamlet like Queen Street, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.

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

Signs you need new build mastic in Queen Street

New homes are full of moisture from plaster, screed and concrete, which takes a year or two to dry out. Drying timber shrinks and pulls joints apart, and sealant that cannot keep up splits.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
  • Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
  • Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
  • Internal frame sealant that has split

If you’ve bought a new home near Paddock Wood station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Leave it or put it right?

Small cosmetic gaps can wait for the house to settle, but a leaking seal can’t. Not sure whether yours can wait? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few photos. Around Queen Street, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. 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.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.

What affects the quote in Queen Street

Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:

  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • The amount of work
  • The type of sealant required

What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What we need to know

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:

  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • The address or postcode of the job

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, and email pictures if that’s easy.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours in a single home. Somewhere as small as Queen Street, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
  2. We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
  3. We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
  4. A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
  5. Each area is checked and left with its cure time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on

How to get a quote

Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
