New-build mastic & snagging in Gold Street, Kent
Professional new build mastic in and around Gold Street, with every bit of old sealant taken out first and a one-year guarantee.
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
Keep pictures of the joints and any snagging correspondence with your builder. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Small faults turn into leaks if left in a busy bathroom.

For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover with a sealant suited to each area. We are often asked to deal with cracks appearing as a new home settles and gaps between new skirting and floors, across bathrooms & en suites, windows & doors and skirting & floors.
Somewhere as small as Gold Street, 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.

Why act early in Gold Street
A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Dealing with it early keeps the damage away from ceilings, floors and finishes. In a small place like Gold Street, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere like Gold Street 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.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us about any water getting in

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Gold Street, several properties can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
Can I do it myself?
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.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
What we are called out for in Gold Street
Sealant applied onto damp surfaces does not bond well. On a busy site, joints aren’t always given time to dry.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
Around Gold Street, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Your questions about new build mastic in Gold Street
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Sole Street station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Will you come out to Gold Street?
Yes, Gold Street is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
What sealant do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Gold Street, along with the rest of our area.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
How long does new build mastic take?
A typical job takes a few hours in a single home. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?
No. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to the old layer, so sealing over the top fails quickly. The old sealant always comes out first.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
