What the job involves on each surface
Skirting and floors
Floors and skirting move as the house dries and the heating runs. Caulk cracks; a flexible sealant moves with it.
Plot handovers
Send us the schedule and any sealant specification. Sealant work across the plot is covered as agreed.
New build mastic for homes and businesses in Faygate
Building dust is behind a lot of failed new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the new bead bonds properly rather than sitting on a layer of grit. If you are dealing with sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces and second-fix sealing on new plots, we can help, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Faygate, 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.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Silicone is usually left for about a day before water reaches them.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you are in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you, so raise it early.

How much does new build mastic cost in Faygate?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Do you use white or clear sealant?
The colour is chosen to suit the tiles, worktop or frame. Tell us what you’d like when you get a quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?
Start with the builder if you’re in the snagging or warranty period. If it is not resolved, we can reseal it properly.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Why it’s worth doing now in Faygate
Small cosmetic gaps can wait for the house to settle, but water getting through cannot. Not sure whether yours can wait? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few pictures. Older cottages and farmhouses around Faygate can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.
Why us?
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- ARBOMaster approved applicator

How it works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like Faygate needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided 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.
- Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Clear the area around the work
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Around Faygate, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it. If you’ve bought a new home near Faygate station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
