New build mastic for Stroud Green homes and businesses

For landlords and businesses

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

New build mastic for homes and businesses in Stroud Green

A new house keeps drying out and settling for its first couple of years. Timber dries and shrinks, and baths and trays settle, and sealant applied in a hurry at handover can split. We work on bathrooms & en suites, windows & doors and show homes, and people most often call us about second-fix sealing on new plots and gaps behind new kitchen upstands.

Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments. In a new development, snags are often reported through the developer or the managing agent, and shower seals that fail early, skirting joints that open up and gaps at thresholds are all common snags.

A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When to call us in Stroud Green

The wrong product is sometimes used in the wrong place: decorators’ caulk in a wet area, or a stiff sealant where there’s movement. Neither lasts long.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
  • Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
  • New-build shower sealant that has already split
  • Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • The length of the guarantee
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not

How to choose a mastic man

When something else is needed

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before work begins. Sealant will not put right:

  • Cracking that points to a structural problem
  • Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
  • Disputes or warranty claims with your builder

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

What we seal

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

What happens on the day

A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours in a single home. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Stroud Green. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.

  1. First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
  2. The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
  3. Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
  4. We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
  5. Each area is checked and left with its cure time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Why act early in Stroud Green

Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Dealing with it early is far simpler for homes in Stroud Green.

What the job involves on each surface

Skirting and floors

Wet-area floor joints need a flexible seal. We seal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.

Windows and doors

On new builds, external frame sealant can be patchy. It’s resealed with an exterior sealant suited to the frame and wall.

What affects the quote in Stroud Green

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Access and height
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The product the joint needs

The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

What to tell us for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
