New build mastic in Artington, done properly
We work in new homes and on new-build sites across Artington. Whether it’s one en suite or a run of plots, the method is the same: cut out, clean, prime where needed and reseal neatly. We work on skirting & floors, bathrooms & en suites and windows & doors, and common reasons people get in touch are new-build shower sealant that has already split and frame joints opening as the plaster dries.
Somewhere as small as Artington, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

Landlord and commercial work in Artington
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
When to call us in Artington
The first winter with the heating on dries a new home quickly. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
For new homes near Shalford station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
What to look for in a quote
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Are they insured?
- How much experience the applicator has
- How long the guarantee is
Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it will not bond to the old layer. Taking it all out and starting again is the only way to get a lasting seal. Around Artington, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

How it works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. For a village or hamlet like Artington, the journey is planned in advance: 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.
- We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Each area is checked and left with its cure time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Move anything stored near the joints

Common questions in Artington
Is Artington in your area for new build mastic?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Artington is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
I let a flat near Shalford station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Should I go to my builder first?
While the snagging or warranty period runs, the builder should be your first contact. If they’re slow or the fix doesn’t last, we can help.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?
That depends on the joint. Failed seals in wet areas need doing now, but cosmetic gaps can wait for movement to slow.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- Mould in or behind the old joints

- Which sealant suits the joint
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins.
