How we handle new build mastic in Chackmore
Across Chackmore, we work for both new-home owners and the builders handing those homes over. 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 windows & doors, bathrooms & en suites and kitchens, and people most often call us about skirting joints opening in the first winter and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks.
Somewhere as small as Chackmore, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Chackmore: your questions answered
Will you come out to Chackmore?
Yes, Chackmore is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you do new build mastic in Chackmore?
Yes, Chackmore is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. 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.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
How much does new build mastic cost in Chackmore?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, always. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, wherever you are.
Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?
There are generally two causes: the house moving as it dries, and sealant that never bonded properly. Cutting it out and resealing properly fixes both.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Let us know what needs doing and where. We will ask anything else we need to know.
How long does new build mastic take?
That depends on the amount of work, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What the job involves on each surface
Kitchens
New-kitchen sealant is often applied in a rush. We take it out and reseal neatly, colour-matched where it shows.
Show homes
We seal show-home bathrooms, kitchens and frames to a tidy standard. Tell us when the home is open so we can plan around it.
What sealant work can’t fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Skirting & floors

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chackmore
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

What happens if it’s left?
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but water getting through cannot. Not sure whether yours can wait? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few photos and we will tell you. Older cottages and farmhouses around Chackmore can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first.

What we do, step by step
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it generally takes a few hours in a single home. Somewhere as small as Chackmore, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Finally, each room is checked and you are given the cure time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
