New build mastic for homes and businesses in Burlow
We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders, and snagging reseals for new-home owners. Both get the same care over preparation since hurried prep is behind a lot of new-build failures. If you have kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall and beads laid onto grit and dust from the build, we can help, on bathrooms & en suites, kitchens and show homes alike.
Around Burlow, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

How it works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere as small as Burlow, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- Finally, each room is checked and you are given the cure time.
Getting ready for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Move anything stored near the joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Advice
Other services in Burlow
What sealant work cannot fix
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
- A tray or bath that is not properly supported, until it’s fixed
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal

Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can go on one quote, and we are fully insured.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
What affects the cost of new build mastic
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The type of sealant required
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- If someone has resealed it before
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- A few photos by email, if you can
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Why act early in Burlow
The builder is generally the first port of call while the snagging or warranty period runs. If it’s slow, or the same joint keeps failing, a proper reseal from a specialist is the next step. Around Burlow, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

Burlow questions
Is new build mastic in Burlow guaranteed?
All our work, in Burlow and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Is Burlow in your area for new build mastic?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Burlow is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we’re using.
Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?
It’s common, and there are usually two reasons: the house moving as it dries, and sealant that never bonded properly. Cutting it out and resealing properly fixes both.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What colour sealant will you use?
Most bathroom joints are white or clear, but other colours are available. We match the colour to the finish.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
