How we handle new build mastic in Wood's Corner

For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover. Common call-outs are for gaps opening as the house dries out and settles and messy sealant that spoils new finishes, on bathrooms & en suites, kitchens and show homes.

In a village or hamlet like Wood's Corner, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.

You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Wood's Corner as everywhere else we work.

Can I do it myself?

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Why act early in Wood's Corner

Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Dealing with it early keeps the damage away from ceilings, floors and finishes. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Wood's Corner, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before work begins.

Signs you need new build mastic in Wood's Corner

Sealant applied onto damp surfaces does not bond well. Site programmes do not always leave time for joints to dry first.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Cracked caulk along new skirting
  • Shower seals failing in the first year or two
  • Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
  • Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • What happens if the job turns out different

Surface by surface

Plot handovers

Good preparation at handover saves snagging later. Dust from the build is removed first and prime where the product needs it.

Windows and doors

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

The process

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere like Wood's Corner needs a little journey planning: 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. 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.
  3. Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
  4. Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
  5. We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
