How the job changes by surface
Windows and doors
On new builds, external frame sealant can be patchy. We reseal it with a weatherproof, flexible sealant.
Skirting and floors
As timber and screed dry, skirting and floors shift. Caulk cracks; a flexible sealant moves with it in a colour to suit.

Do you cover smaller places like Burlings?

What do you need from me for a quote?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and we will quote it together.
What colour sealant will you use?
The colour is chosen to suit the tiles, worktop or frame. Tell us what you’d like when you get a quote.
Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
How it works
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. For a village or hamlet like Burlings, 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.
- Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- Each area is checked and left with its cure time.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky

What affects the cost of new build mastic
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The number and length of the joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The old material and how stubborn it is
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- If someone has resealed it before
- The address or postcode of the job
- Roughly how big the job is
For a quote, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. We’ll send you a clear quote before any work starts.
Signs you need new build mastic in Burlings
Sealant is often one of the last jobs before handover. Dusty, unprimed joints are common, and the sealant sits on grit instead of the surface.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
For new homes near Knockholt station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
Before booking anyone
- How much experience the applicator has
- The length of the guarantee
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether they’re fully insured
For landlords and businesses
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
