Questions from Wiggonholt

Do you work for landlords with property near Pulborough station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.

Can you do new build mastic in Wiggonholt?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Wiggonholt is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

What sealant do you use?

It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?

No. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to the old layer, so sealing over the top fails quickly. The old sealant always comes out first.

Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?

Start with your builder while their snagging or warranty period runs. After that, or if their repair keeps failing, we can do it with our one-year guarantee.

Do you have insurance?

Yes, we’re fully insured for every job we do.

Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?

It depends on the joint: white or clear in most bathrooms, and a colour to suit worktops, frames and floors elsewhere. We’ll agree it with you first.

New build mastic in Wiggonholt, done properly

A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water reaches anything behind it. We work on plot handovers, skirting & floors and bathrooms & en suites, and people most often call us about internal frame sealant that has split and cracked caulk along new skirting.

Somewhere as small as Wiggonholt, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

How the job changes by surface

Plot handovers

Good preparation at handover saves snagging later. Dust from the build is removed first and primer used where needed.

Show homes

In a show home, the sealant is on display. We lay neat, even beads in colours to suit the finishes.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords and letting agents in Wiggonholt can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

The process

The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Somewhere as small as Wiggonholt, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. Each joint is checked for movement before any work starts.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
  3. Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
  4. New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
  5. We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Getting a quote

For a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. We’ll give you a clear price before any work starts.

Related advice

Should I try it myself first?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

Aftercare tips

Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
  • Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
  • Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
  • Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through

Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it.

Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Resealing before mould gets in keeps the job straightforward.

Why deal with it now?

For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Snagging visits for failed sealant cost time on every plot, and they’re avoidable with good preparation. Older cottages and farmhouses around Wiggonholt can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first.

Do you need new build mastic in Wiggonholt?

On many sites, sealant goes on in the final rush before handover. Joints aren’t always cleaned of dust or primed, so the bead never bonds properly.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
  • Skirting joints opening in the first winter
  • Cracks appearing as a new home settles
  • Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall

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