The process

There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Somewhere as small as Roedean, access is often the only tricky part. 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. Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Tell us about any water getting in

How we handle new build mastic in Roedean

Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. In both, preparation makes the difference, because that is what rushed new-build sealant usually lacks. If you’re dealing with shower seals failing in the first year or two and gaps between new skirting and floors, we can help, on skirting & floors, kitchens and show homes alike.

Somewhere as small as Roedean, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Surface by surface

Kitchens

Beside the sink, the joint takes water every day. A kitchen sealant goes in there suited to the job.

Windows and doors

On new builds, external frame sealant can be patchy. It’s resealed with an exterior sealant suited to the frame and wall.

Aftercare tips

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:

  • Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
  • Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
  • Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
  • Raise failed sealant with the developer while you are covered

Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it, which can damage the surface.

The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Small faults turn into leaks if left over time.

Honest limits

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
  • Broken tiles or a split tray
  • Plumbing faults behind the sealant

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Joints and surfaces we work on

Why it’s worth doing now in Roedean

A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it won’t bond to the old layer. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. Older cottages and farmhouses around Roedean can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.

Roedean: your questions answered

I let a flat near Brighton station. Can you help?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Can you do new build mastic in Roedean?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Roedean is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.

How long before the joint can be used?

Cure times vary by product. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.

Are you insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.

Does someone need to be in?

That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?

No. We always remove the existing bead, the joint cleaned and primed where needed, before resealing.

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 drop us an email with a short description of the job.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

How we quote for new build mastic

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of sealant required
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The amount of work
  • The old material and how stubborn it is

Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

What we need to know

When you call or email, it’s useful to know:

  • How we’d reach the joints
  • The rough size of the job
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
