Kelvedon questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Kelvedon station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Kelvedon?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
How do I get a quote for new build mastic in Kelvedon?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing and where.
Where are you based?
We’re a Crawley-based firm. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
About our new build mastic in Kelvedon
Across Kelvedon, we work for both new-home owners and the builders handing those homes over. Whether it’s one en suite or a run of plots, the method is the same: cut out, clean, prime where needed and reseal neatly. If you have cracks appearing as a new home settles and internal frame sealant that has split, we can help.
In and around Kelvedon, floors range from older timber boards to tiles and newer finishes, each moving in its own way. The sealant at skirtings and thresholds has to suit the floor it meets.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

When it isn’t the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Windows & doors
- Bathrooms & en suites

How it works
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours in a single home. In a smaller place like Kelvedon, 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.
- 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.
- Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Finally, each room is checked and you are given the cure time.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
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.
What new build mastic looks like in Kelvedon
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

Surface by surface
Bathrooms and en suites
Shower trays in new homes often move slightly in the first year. The joint is stripped back before the new bead goes in and baths are filled before sealing.
Show homes
Bathrooms, kitchens and frames in show homes are sealed or resealed to a neat finish to a tidy standard. We’ll plan around viewing times.
When to call us in Kelvedon
If plaster or screed was still damp when it was sealed, the bond suffers. Site programmes do not always leave time for joints to dry before the sealant goes on.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
If you’ve bought a new home near Kelvedon station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Why it’s worth doing now in Kelvedon
Small cosmetic gaps can wait for the house to settle, but a leaking seal can’t. Not sure whether yours can wait? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few photos and we will tell you. In a smaller place like Kelvedon, 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.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.
