Trusted new build mastic in St David's

New build mastic in St David's

We work in new homes and on new-build sites across St David's. 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’re dealing with sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces and leaking shower tray seals in a new home, we can put it right, on windows & doors, kitchens and show homes alike.

For a place like St David's, the journey and access are planned in advance. Outdoor plot mastic needs dry weather, but indoor floor and skirting joints can be sealed whatever the forecast.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Common problems we fix in St David's

Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Neither lasts long.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
  • New-build shower sealant that has already split
  • Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
  • Cracked caulk along new skirting

Whether the job is in St David's itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

Before booking anyone

  • The length of the guarantee
  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • Whether VAT is included
  • Whether they’re fully insured

Choosing a sealant specialist

What affects the cost of new build mastic

You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The type of sealant required
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

What we need to know

When you contact us, these details help:

  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • The type of property
  • How we’d reach the joints

For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work.

Landlord and commercial work in St David's

Landlords and letting agents in St David's can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

FAQs for St David's

Which products do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.

Where are you based?

What do you need from me for a quote?

Can you do plot mastic on a new development?

Yes. We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders and developers. Send us the plot schedule and we will quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.

Will you leave a mess?

We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.

The process

Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.

  1. We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
  3. We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
  4. Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
  5. We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Mention any tricky access

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.

What happens if it’s left?

A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but a leaking seal cannot. Not sure whether yours can wait? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few pictures. Around St David's, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
