New build mastic in Yarmouth

About our new build mastic in Yarmouth

We never seal over a failed new-build bead. Fresh silicone can’t bond to the old layer, so the joint is cut out, cleaned, dried and resealed. We work on bathrooms & en suites, show homes and plot handovers, and people most often call us about frame joints opening as the plaster dries and beads laid onto grit and dust from the build.

In a village or hamlet like Yarmouth, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Yarmouth and across the Isle of Wight.

Can I do it myself?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

New homes and floors in Yarmouth

Yarmouth is close to the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so it’s worth checking at snagging. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

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

Yarmouth is about 4 miles south-east of Lymington, in the Isle of Wight. Wherever you are in the PO41 postcode area, we can carry out new build mastic at your property. Across the Isle of Wight, we cover 125 places, Yarmouth among them. We also work in Southampton, about 15 miles from Yarmouth.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
  • Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
  • Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
  • Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period

Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray in the first few weeks. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.

Leave a failed new-build seal and water can reach the floor and the ceiling below. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant.

How the visit works

Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it usually takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Somewhere like Yarmouth 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 go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
  2. We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
  3. Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
  4. We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
  5. We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Do you need new build mastic in Yarmouth?

New homes are full of moisture from plaster, screed and concrete, and it dries out over the first couple of years. Drying timber shrinks and pulls joints apart and the sealant has to cope with the movement.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Skirting joints opening in the first winter
  • Second-fix sealing on new plots
  • Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
  • Cracks appearing as a new home settles

Around Yarmouth, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
