What new build mastic looks like in Gatton
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
For new homes near Merstham station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh. Around Gatton, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Common questions in Gatton
Do you cover smaller places like Gatton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you do new build mastic in Gatton?
Yes, Gatton is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. Several properties can be quoted together, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured for every job we do.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We’ll give you the cure time for the product we used.
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.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
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.
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchens
New-kitchen sealant is often applied in a rush. We remove it and reseal with a kitchen-suitable sealant.
Skirting and floors
Gaps under skirting are one of the most common new-build snags. We seal it with a flexible sealant that copes with the movement.
What affects the cost of new build mastic
We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- When we can work, for business premises
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
What to tell us for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Where the property is
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.
What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Why it’s worth doing now in Gatton
It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. You get one visit and one clear quote for the lot. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Gatton, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will talk you through it.
Why book with us
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator

- Tidy, careful work
