Looking after it afterwards

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
  • Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
  • Use the extractor fan every time you shower
  • Watch for new gaps as the house dries out

Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It helps if anything else comes up during the warranty period.

Report failed sealant to the builder while you are in the snagging period. Once it ends, the repair may be down to you, so raise it early.

One shower or a whole phase of plots, the method doesn’t change: cut out, clean, prime where needed and reseal neatly.

Questions from Wormley West End

Will you come out to Wormley West End?

Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

I let a flat near Bayford station. Can you help?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?

A new house dries and settles for a year or two, and sealant is often applied quickly onto dusty surfaces. Either can make it fail early.

How do I get a quote for new build mastic in Wormley West End?

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing and where.

Can you work from my snagging list?

Yes. We often work straight from a snagging list. We agree the sealant items with you before work begins.

How long before the joint can be used?

Cure times vary by product and the conditions. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.

Do you remove the old sealant?

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

Do I need to be at home?

That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.

Honest limits

Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:

  • Plumbing faults behind the sealant
  • Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
  • Settlement cracks that need a surveyor

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

What affects the cost of new build mastic

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • How much there is to do

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

Why it’s worth doing now in Wormley West End

Resealing everything on a snagging list in one visit is usually simpler than chasing joints one at a time. You get one visit and one clear quote for the lot. Around Wormley West End, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.

Advice

Should I try it myself first?

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Surface by surface

Windows and doors

External mastic around new windows and doors is sometimes rushed or missed. We reseal it with a weatherproof, flexible sealant.

Bathrooms and en suites

En suite showers are a common source of leaks into the room below. Resealing properly keeps water where it belongs.
