New build mastic for Selham homes and businesses

The process

When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. In a small place like Selham, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
  2. Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out down to clean surfaces.
  3. We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
  4. Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
  5. We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Mention any tricky access

New build mastic in Selham

We work in new homes and on new-build sites across Selham. One shower or a whole phase of plots, the method does not change: remove, clean, prime where needed, then a neat new bead. If you have kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list, we can help, on show homes, skirting & floors and windows & doors alike.

Somewhere as small as Selham, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Surface by surface

Bathrooms and en suites

En suite showers are a common source of leaks into the room below. Resealing properly keeps water where it belongs.

Windows and doors

On new builds, external frame sealant can be patchy. We reseal it with a weatherproof, flexible sealant.

It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. We will tell you when we quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.

What sealant work cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different trade:

  • Broken tiles or a split tray
  • Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
  • Plumbing faults behind the sealant

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

Where we work in Selham

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

How to look after the new joints

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Raise failed sealant with the developer while you are covered
  • Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
  • Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
  • Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year

Keep an eye on the joints over the first couple of years. Hairline gaps can open as timber and plaster dry and can be resealed later.

Early snagging is easier snagging. Small faults turn into leaks if left over time.

What we need to know

To help us quote quickly, let us know:

  • The type of property
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Roughly how big the job is

Common problems we fix in Selham

Baths and trays settle under load once the home is lived in. If a bath wasn’t filled when it was sealed, the bead is stretched the first time it’s used and the sealant may split.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Cracked caulk along new skirting
  • Sealant that never bonded to the surface
  • Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
  • Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging

In and around Selham, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
