Quotes for new build mastic in Wheeler End

The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • The number of rooms or windows
  • The number and length of the joints
  • Access and height
  • Mould in or behind the old joints

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before work begins.

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:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Where the property is
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

How we handle new build mastic in Wheeler End

If your new home has a leaking shower seal, open skirting joints or untidy sealant, we can help. While the builder’s snagging or warranty period runs, report it to them first, and if it isn’t put right, get in touch with us. If you have internal frame sealant that has split and new-build shower sealant that has already split, we can help, on bathrooms & en suites, kitchens and skirting & floors alike.

Older homes in small places like Wheeler End often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.

Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

What we do, step by step

We bring everything the job needs with us, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Somewhere like Wheeler End needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
  2. The failed sealant is removed completely 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.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • New-build shower sealant that has already split
  • Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
  • Sealant that never bonded to the surface
  • Gaps behind new kitchen upstands

If you’ve bought a new home near Saunderton station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant

Our hiring checklist

Can I do it myself?

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

How to look after the new joints

Aftercare is simple:

  • Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
  • Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
  • Get a leaking seal dealt with straight away
  • Record problems with dated photos

Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it, which can damage the surface.

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

What happens if it’s left?

Sealant done properly at handover means fewer callbacks. Every return visit for a failed seal takes time and most come down to preparation. Around Wheeler End, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

Why book with us

  • Fully insured
  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
  • A choice of colours where the product allows
  • Every job guaranteed for a year

When something else is needed

To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:

  • Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
  • Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.
