Questions from Withermarsh Green

Is new build mastic in Withermarsh Green guaranteed?

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.

Can you do new build mastic in Withermarsh Green?

Yes, Withermarsh Green is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.

Can I send you my snagging list?

Yes. Snagging lists are a common starting point for us. We agree the sealant items with you before any work starts.

How long before the joint can be used?

It depends on the product and the temperature. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.

Are you insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.

Do I need to be at home?

That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

Can you do plot mastic on a new development?

Yes. We work through plots to your schedule, room by room. Get in touch with the number of plots and the scope and we’ll quote.

New build mastic in Withermarsh Green, done properly

A new house keeps drying out and settling for its first couple of years. Timber dries and shrinks, and baths and trays settle, so sealant that was laid quickly before handover often cracks. If you have plot mastic for developers ahead of handover and sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Somewhere as small as Withermarsh Green, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Aftercare tips

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Do not seal over failed sealant yourself
  • Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
  • Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
  • Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant

Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray. Report any movement in a bath or tray.

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

What sealant work can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:

  • Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
  • Broken tiles or a split tray
  • Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

Common problems we fix in Withermarsh Green

Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: decorators’ caulk in a wet area, or a stiff sealant where there’s movement. Neither lasts long.

The problems people usually mention when they call include:

  • Second-fix sealing on new plots
  • Internal frame sealant that has split
  • New-build shower sealant that has already split
  • Messy sealant that spoils new finishes

In and around Withermarsh Green, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

10 questions to ask before booking

How the job changes by 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 and baths are filled before sealing.

Kitchens

Beside the sink, the joint takes water every day. A kitchen sealant goes in there, food-safe where it’s needed.

What happens on the day

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Withermarsh Green, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
  2. Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
  3. We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
  4. A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
  5. Each area is checked and left with its cure time.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any tricky access
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
