New build mastic for South Fambridge homes and businesses

Do you need new build mastic in South Fambridge?

On many sites, sealant goes on in the final rush before handover. Joints are not always cleaned of dust or primed, so the bead never bonds properly.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
  • Sealant that never bonded to the surface
  • Cracks appearing as a new home settles
  • Cracked caulk along new skirting

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

What your quote should include

  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • What insurance they hold
  • What the cure time is

Choosing a sealant specialist

New build mastic in South Fambridge

Developers send us the plot schedule and we work through it. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over. If you are dealing with frame joints opening as the plaster dries and gaps between new skirting and floors, we can help.

In a village or hamlet like South Fambridge, 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.

Looking after it afterwards

How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
  • Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
  • Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
  • Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered

Keep photos of the joints and any snagging correspondence with your builder. It helps if anything else comes up during the warranty period.

Report failed sealant to the builder while you’re in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you so report it promptly.

When something else is needed

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
  • Structural cracks in walls or ceilings

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