What affects the cost of new build mastic
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- The size of the job
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Mould in or behind the old joints
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Roughly how big the job is
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you’re ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
New build mastic in Berry's Green, done properly
Some new-home owners let the house settle before resealing. That makes sense for small gaps that are just cosmetic, but a failed shower or bath seal shouldn’t wait. We are often asked to deal with kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall and cracked sealant around new window and door frames, on bathrooms & en suites, skirting & floors and plot handovers.
From brand-new flats to converted terraces with new flooring, London has every kind of floor. Wherever a floor meets a wall, a skirting or a threshold, the joint has to allow for movement, in Berry's Green as anywhere.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- 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 are given the cure time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about parking restrictions

What we’re called out for in Berry's Green
New homes are full of moisture from plaster, screed and concrete, and it dries out over the first couple of years. As it does, timber shrinks and joints open and the sealant has to cope with the movement.
Look out for these signs:
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
If you’ve bought a new home near Chelsfield station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Your questions about new build mastic in Berry's Green
Do you cover Berry's Green for new build mastic?
Yes, Berry's Green is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Berry's Green?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long before the joint can be used?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will give you the cure time for the product we used.
Should I wait before resealing?
That depends on the joint. Failed seals in wet areas need doing now, while small cosmetic gaps can wait a while.
Will you just run a new bead over the existing one?
No. The old sealant is cut out fully, the joint cleaned and primed where needed, and a new bead applied.
Do you work for developers?
Yes. We take on second-fix sealant work across new plots. We clean and prime joints properly to keep callbacks down.
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
- Don’t wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Silicone is normally left for about a day before water reaches them.
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 and protects the rest of the house.
When it isn’t the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
