Leave it or put it right?
Running a new bead over the builder’s sealant might look tidy for a few weeks, but it can’t bond to what’s underneath. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Abinger Common, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts.

How it works
On the day, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots.

We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
- Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.

Abinger Common: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Gomshall station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Is Abinger Common within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, always. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, wherever you are.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
There are usually two causes: the house moving as it dries, and sealant that never bonded properly. A proper reseal deals with both.
What does new build mastic cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before any work starts.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Skirting & floors
- Plot handovers
- Show homes
- Kitchens
- Windows & doors
- Bathrooms & en suites
For landlords and businesses
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Abinger Common and across Surrey. Several sites can go on one quote.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
How we quote for new build mastic
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- The product the joint needs
- Any mould that needs treating
- How many areas need sealing
- Any working-time requirements on site
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- The rough size of the job

How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Follow the cure time we give you
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Don’t wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It helps if anything else comes up during the warranty period.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Dealing with it before it goes black keeps the job straightforward.
