Trusted new build mastic in Eddington

What happens on the day

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Parking around Eddington is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
  2. We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
  3. We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
  4. New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
  5. We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

How we handle new build mastic in Eddington

Failed shower seals, gaps along the skirting and messy beads are common items on a new-home snagging list. If you’re still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, tell them first. We are often asked to deal with gaps behind new kitchen upstands and sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces, across skirting & floors, plot handovers and bathrooms & en suites.

Where new homes go up in smaller places like Eddington, it’s often a small development or a single plot. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly from day one.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

How we quote for new build mastic

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • The type of sealant required
  • Any working-time requirements on site

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Asking for a quote

When you contact us, it’s useful to know:

  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

For a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. We will send you a clear quote before any work starts.

What sealant work cannot fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Plumbing faults behind the sealant
  • Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
  • Settlement cracks that need a surveyor

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we seal

  • Windows & doors
  • Plot handovers
  • Show homes
  • Kitchens
  • Bathrooms & en suites
  • Skirting & floors

Landlord and commercial work in Eddington

Letting agents and landlords in Eddington can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Should I try it myself first?

If you’re 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 does not work out, we can still put it right.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Eddington: your questions answered

Can you do new build mastic in Eddington?

Yes, Eddington is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Do you cover smaller places like Eddington?

Yes. Eddington is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

What sealant 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 explain our choice.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Will you leave a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Can tenants book the work?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you work from my snagging list?

Yes. Send the list and a few pictures of the sealant items and we will give you a quote. We will tell you if anything on it isn’t a sealant job.

Can landlords and businesses book you?

Yes. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do, and we are fully insured.

Joints and finishes in Eddington homes

Eddington is within about 2 miles of the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so any gaps are best picked up early. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

In and around Eddington, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. If you’ve bought a new home near Herne Bay station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

What happens if it’s left?

A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. Homes in smaller places like Eddington can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before work begins.
