When something else is needed

We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:

  • A tray or bath that is not properly supported, until it’s fixed
  • Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
  • Cracking that points to a structural problem

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

Joints and surfaces we work on

New build mastic in Romsey, done properly

We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders, and snagging reseals for new-home owners. Both get the same care over preparation, because that’s what rushed new-build sealant usually lacks. We work on show homes, windows & doors and bathrooms & en suites, and people most often call us about frame joints opening as the plaster dries and gaps between new skirting and floors.

Small business units and shops in a town like Romsey have floors that take heavy wear. Joints at thresholds and in tiled or concrete floors need resealing before the edges start to break up.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Romsey and across Hampshire.

The process

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots for a typical job. A visit in Romsey needs access to the work and a place to park close by. For outside work, let us know about side access, gates and any upper-floor joints.

  1. We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
  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. The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

What happens if it’s left?

Running a new bead over the builder’s sealant might look tidy for a few weeks, but it can’t bond to what’s underneath. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. Around Romsey, failed sealant lets water into hidden places, such as under the floor, behind a panel or into a wall. Whatever the joint, failed sealant only gets worse.

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Why choose Mr Mastic in Romsey

  • We never seal over old sealant
  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
  • An ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels

See our cost guide or our reviews.

Surface by surface

Skirting and floors

Wet-area floor joints need a flexible seal. We seal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.

Plot handovers

Plot mastic is carried out to the developer’s schedule. Joints are prepared properly before sealing to keep callbacks down.

Should I try it myself first?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Romsey questions

Is there a guarantee on new build mastic in Romsey?

All our work, in Romsey and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Do you cover Romsey for new build mastic?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Romsey is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?

Lots of new homes see sealant crack early, because the house is drying and settling. Poor preparation at handover adds to it.

When is the sealant fully cured?

Cure times vary by product and the conditions. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.

Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?

Any seal that is leaking should be redone straight away. For small cosmetic gaps, waiting until the house has settled can save doing them twice.

Should I try DIY first?

That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?

That depends on what the joint meets: white or clear for most sanitary joints, colours for worktops, floors and frames. We’ll agree it with you first.

Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?

Report it to the builder first while you’re covered. If it is not resolved, we can reseal it properly.

Do you need new build mastic in Romsey?

New homes are full of moisture from plaster, screed and concrete, which takes a year or two to dry out. As it does, timber shrinks and joints open.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
  • Cracked caulk along new skirting
  • Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
  • Messy sealant that spoils new finishes

Around Romsey, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
