About our new build mastic in Streatham Park

Snagging sealant properly means taking the failed bead out completely. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so the joint is cut out, cleaned, dried and resealed. We work on plot handovers, skirting & floors and windows & doors, and common reasons people get in touch are new-build shower sealant that has already split and second-fix sealing on new plots.

Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments. Snagging there often goes through the developer or managing agent, and failed shower seals, open skirting joints and gaps at thresholds are typical.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

New homes and floors in Streatham Park

Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent.

For new homes near Streatham station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

What sealant work cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:

  • Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
  • Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber

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

Surfaces we seal

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

Aftercare tips

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

  • Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
  • Wipe joints with warm soapy water
  • Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
  • Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop

Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents as they wear the bead.

A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Early resealing keeps the job small.

When to call us in Streatham Park

Sealant is often one of the last jobs before handover. Joints aren’t always cleaned of dust or primed, and the sealant sits on grit instead of the surface.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Sealant work across a run of new homes
  • Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
  • Gaps between new skirting and floors
  • Cracks appearing as a new home settles

As a London address, Streatham Park can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Can I do it myself?

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
