How we handle new build mastic in Wells-in-the-Field

In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. When the finish is smeared, patchy or already cracking, it’s worth putting right early, before water reaches anything behind it. We are often asked to deal with beads laid onto grit and dust from the build and cracked caulk along new skirting, across bathrooms & en suites, windows & doors and plot handovers.

For a small place like Wells-in-the-Field, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.

Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots in most cases. In a small place like Wells-in-the-Field, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. Each joint is checked for movement before work begins.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
  3. Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
  4. Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
  5. We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.

Our hiring checklist

Leave it or put it right?

The builder is generally the first port of call while the snagging or warranty period runs. If it’s slow, or the same joint keeps failing, a proper reseal from a specialist is the next step. Older cottages and farmhouses around Wells-in-the-Field can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

Why book with us

  • Arbo and Everbuild products
  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
  • Old sealant always removed completely
  • We are fully insured

What affects the quote in Wells-in-the-Field

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • Whether the work is at height
  • Any mould that needs treating

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Helping us quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add pictures by email if you can.

Can I do it myself?

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

Looking after it afterwards

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:

  • Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
  • Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
  • Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
  • Follow the cure time we give you

Keep an eye on the joints over the first couple of years. Small gaps can appear as the house dries.

Report failed sealant to the builder while you are in the snagging period. Once it ends, the repair may be down to you.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Are you insured?

Yes. We are fully insured.

Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?

No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so sealing over the top fails quickly. We cut the old bead out completely.

Can I send you my snagging list?

Yes. Send us the sealant items on the list, with photos if you can, and we’ll quote. We’ll flag anything that needs another trade.

What colour sealant will you use?

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

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
