How we handle new build mastic in Brabourne
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. Each joint is cleaned of dust and primed where the product calls for it, so the sealant actually sticks. If you have gaps behind new kitchen upstands and smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging, we can help, on skirting & floors, plot handovers and windows & doors alike.
In a village or hamlet like Brabourne, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

How the job changes by surface
Kitchens
As a new house dries, worktops and walls shift a little, which opens gaps along the back. We reseal them with a flexible sealant.
Skirting and floors
Gaps under skirting are one of the most common new-build snags. A flexible sealant closes it without cracking like caulk.

What else we do in Brabourne
What happens if it’s left?
Sealant done properly at handover means fewer callbacks. Snagging visits for failed sealant cost time on every plot, and they’re avoidable with good preparation. In a small place like Brabourne, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Brabourne

What affects the quote in Brabourne
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The number and length of the joints
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first.

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- If someone has resealed it before
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The type of property
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

Common questions in Brabourne
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Westenhanger station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Brabourne?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
How long does the job take?
Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, including preparation and clearing up. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Can you work from my snagging list?
Yes. Send us the sealant items on the list, with pictures if you can and we’ll give you a quote. We will tell you if anything on it isn’t a sealant job.
Do you use white or clear sealant?
It depends on the joint: white or clear in most bathrooms, and a colour to suit worktops, frames and floors elsewhere. We agree the colour before any work starts.
How long should I leave it?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Record problems with dated photos
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
Keep the bathroom ventilated, especially in the first year. Run the fan or open a window after bathing to help keep mould away.
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.
Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
