Mastic sealants:
The perfect multitasker
No matter if you are working on sinks, toilets, skirting boards or dado rails, mastic sealant is a great all-round solution for dealing with them all. Discover more in our handy guide.
Whether you need anti-mould sealants for your shower & bathroom, all-purpose sealants for general use in the home or exterior sealants for roofs, gutters and frames, mastic sealant can do them all. It creates a strong, flexible and waterproof seal, making it ideal for sealing gaps and joints in places where it will need to resist some movement, such a shower screen or a window frame. Because exterior mastic sealant is weatherproof, it is also perfect for outdoor projects.
Using mastic sealant is a simple procedure that anyone can master. Just follow these steps to create the perfect seal for all your home DIY projects.
If you have a Heating, Ventilation and Air Condition unit (HVAC) installed, you’ll need to fill around the joints, otherwise an air loss in the system could occur. A water-based mastic duct sealant is preferable to tape: since it’s fluid you can reach areas that tape cannot. Also, its flexibility will withstand varying temperatures.
Choosing the right mastic sealant depends on what you are trying to achieve and what area of the house you are working in. If you need a genuine all-rounder for multiple jobs, UniBond Universal Sealant provides a strong, flexible and lasting seal for non-paintable joints in and around the home.
