New build mastic in Churchgate
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over. We work on bathrooms & en suites, show homes and kitchens, and the jobs we see most are new-build shower sealant that has already split and sealant that never bonded to the surface.
If you’ve bought a new home in or near Churchgate, the first year or two is a good time to check the sealant. Gaps at skirtings, shower seals pulling away and missing mastic around frames are common snags.
Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee.

How we quote for new build mastic
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Access and height
- Which sealant suits the joint
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.
Helping us quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- A few photos by email, if you can
- How we’d reach the joints
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
We do not publish a price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Should I try it myself first?
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.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

How the job changes by surface
Kitchens
New-kitchen sealant is often applied in a rush. We remove it and reseal with a kitchen-suitable sealant.
Plot handovers
Plot mastic is carried out to the developer’s schedule. Each joint is cleaned and primed where needed to keep callbacks down.
What we do, step by step
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours in a single home, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In a smaller place like Churchgate, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- Finally, each room is checked and you are given the cure time.
Before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

What new build mastic looks like in Churchgate
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you’ve bought a new home near Theobalds Grove station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Signs you need new build mastic in Churchgate
Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Both fail early.
The most common problems we see are:
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
In and around Churchgate, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Questions to ask before booking
- How long the guarantee is
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What happens if the job turns out different
Why act early in Churchgate
Sealant done properly at handover means fewer callbacks. Snagging visits for failed sealant cost time on every plot. In a smaller place like Churchgate, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Why book with us
- One-year guarantee on every job
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- We never seal over old sealant
- More than 20 years in sealant work
