Surface by surface

Windows and doors

External mastic around new windows and doors is sometimes rushed or missed. It’s resealed with an exterior sealant suited to the frame and wall.

Skirting and floors

Gaps under skirting are one of the most common new-build snags. A flexible sealant closes it without cracking like caulk.

New build mastic in Vauxhall, done properly

Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. Both get the same care over preparation, because that’s what rushed new-build sealant normally lacks. If you’re dealing with gaps opening as the house dries out and settles and messy sealant that spoils new finishes, we can help, whatever the surface.

From brand-new flats to converted terraces with new flooring, London has every kind of floor. Every joint between floor, skirting and threshold has to cope with some movement, in Vauxhall as anywhere.

Our work is backed for twelve months, in Vauxhall and everywhere else we cover.

Signs you need new build mastic in Vauxhall

The wrong product is sometimes used in the wrong place: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Neither lasts long.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
  • Gaps between new skirting and floors
  • Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
  • Internal frame sealant that has split

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

  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • Is VAT in the price?

New build mastic around Vauxhall

Questions from Vauxhall

I let a flat near Vauxhall station. Can you help?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Is Vauxhall in your area for new build mastic?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Vauxhall is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Do you use white or clear sealant?

The colour is chosen to suit the tiles, worktop or frame. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.

How do I get a quote for new build mastic in Vauxhall?

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.

Do you take on second-fix sealing for builders?

Yes. Second-fix sealing in bathrooms, kitchens, frames and floors is part of what we do. We clean and prime joints properly to keep callbacks down.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.

Is it worth trying it myself?

That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.

Why act early in Vauxhall

DIY kits do not solve the main problems with new-build sealant: grit, unprimed surfaces and old layers underneath. Cutting out, cleaning and priming are what make the difference. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Vauxhall, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.

Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

How to look after the new joints

A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:

  • Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
  • Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
  • Use the extractor fan every time you shower
  • Follow the cure time we give you

Ventilation matters in a new home, which is still drying out. Use the extractor fan or open a window after showers so moisture does not sit on the sealant.

A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Getting it resealed properly, and any movement checked, stops it recurring.

What we do, step by step

When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. The work generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. For a job in Vauxhall, parking and access are the things to plan: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.

  1. We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
  2. Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out, with no layer left behind.
  3. Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
  4. Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
  5. We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
