New build mastic for South Nutfield homes and businesses

New build mastic in South Nutfield

New homes move as they dry out. Timber dries and shrinks, and baths and trays settle, so sealant that was laid quickly before handover often cracks. We work on windows & doors, plot handovers and skirting & floors, and common reasons people get in touch are second-fix sealing on new plots and cracked caulk along new skirting.

In a village or hamlet like South Nutfield, 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.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What happens on the day

We bring everything the job needs with us. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. In a small place like South Nutfield, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
  2. We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
  3. Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
  4. We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
  5. We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.

Before we arrive

  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

When it isn’t the sealant

To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:

  • Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
  • Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
  • Plumbing faults behind the sealant

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

Joints and surfaces we work on

Landlord and commercial work in South Nutfield

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can be quoted together, and we are fully insured for the work.

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

Different surfaces, different methods

Windows and doors

Internal joints between frames and plaster often crack as a new house dries. We cut out the cracked bead and reseal with a flexible sealant in a matching colour.

Plot handovers

Developers can send the plot schedule and specification and we will quote. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, frames and floors to the agreed spec.

When to call us in South Nutfield

New homes are full of moisture from plaster, screed and concrete, and it dries out over the first couple of years. As it does, timber shrinks and joints open and the sealant has to cope with the movement.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Shower seals failing in the first year or two
  • Skirting joints opening in the first winter
  • Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
  • Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • What the cure time is
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are

Why act early in South Nutfield

DIY kits don’t solve the main problems with new-build sealant: grit, unprimed surfaces and old layers underneath. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like South Nutfield, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What you get with us

  • An ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • Neat joints and a tidy finish
  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
  • Every job guaranteed for a year
