About our new build mastic in West End

In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water gets into the floor or walls. We work on windows & doors, show homes and bathrooms & en suites, and common reasons people get in touch are joints pulling apart as timber shrinks and leaking shower tray seals in a new home.

Across London, commercial floors have movement joints that break down under heavy foot traffic, while new homes need a neat, sound finish around frames, baths and kitchens before handover, in West End and beyond.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Why it’s worth doing now in West End

A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but a leaking seal can’t. If you are unsure which you have, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with photos and we will give you a straight answer. In a flat in West End, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.

Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Signs you need new build mastic in West End

The wrong product is sometimes used in the wrong place: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Both fail early.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
  • Cracks appearing as a new home settles
  • Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
  • Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list

West End is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

What your quote should include

  • What the cure time is
  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • How long the guarantee is
  • Are they insured?

Our hiring checklist

What the job involves on each surface

Bathrooms and en suites

Trays and baths in new builds settle as they’re used. We reseal once the old bead is fully out with baths filled first.

Windows and doors

Draughts around new frames are often a sealant gap. We look at the joints and reseal where needed.

What affects the quote in West End

Your quote is based on your job. We look at:

  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • The number and length of the joints
  • Working hours on commercial sites

We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Questions from West End

Can you do new build mastic in West End?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and West End is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Is parking a problem for a job in West End?

It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything is not right with the work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we are fully insured.

Can you do plot mastic on a new development?

Yes. We seal plots to the developer’s programme ready for handover. Tell us the plots and the joints involved for a clear quote.

Which products do you use?

The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.

Can I do it myself?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. 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.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

New build mastic around West End

Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snagging may go through the developer or managing agent. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

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

How the visit works

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, 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 West End. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.

  1. First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
  2. Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out down to clean surfaces.
  3. Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
  4. We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
  5. We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we will come back to you with a quote.

Advice

Aftercare tips

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
  • Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
  • Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
  • Record problems with dated photos

Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Most silicones need around a day before water reaches them.

The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Small faults turn into leaks if left in a busy bathroom.
