About our new build mastic in Little Tey

In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water gets into the floor or walls. If you have messy sealant that spoils new finishes and cracked caulk along new skirting, we can help.

Work in a small place like Little Tey just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

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

FAQs for Little Tey

I let a flat near Marks Tey station. Can you help?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.

Do you cover smaller places like Little Tey?

Yes. Little Tey is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

What sealant do you use?

It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we’re fully insured.

Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?

No. Over-sealing traps mould and water and soon fails. We remove every bit of the old bead before resealing.

How long before the joint can be used?

Cure times vary by product. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.

Do you take on second-fix sealing for builders?

Yes. We seal plots to the developer’s programme, room by room. Get in touch with the number of plots and the scope and we will quote.

Do I need to be at home?

That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

What affects the quote in Little Tey

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • The product the joint needs
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • The size of the job

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

What to tell us for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:

  • The rough size of the job
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.

What we do, step by step

A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours in a single home. In a small place like Little Tey, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
  2. The failed sealant is removed completely, with no layer left behind.
  3. Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
  4. Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
  5. We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.

How to prepare

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Let us know about parking restrictions

How to get a quote

It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you are ready, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Do you need new build mastic in Little Tey?

On many sites, sealant goes on in the final rush before handover. Joints aren’t always cleaned of dust or primed, so the bead never bonds properly.

Look out for these signs:

  • Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
  • Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
  • Shower seals failing in the first year or two
  • Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles

In and around Little Tey, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What your quote should include

  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • How hidden problems are handled
  • What product goes in the joint
  • How much experience the applicator has

10 questions to ask before booking

Why it’s worth doing now in Little Tey

Sealant done properly at handover means fewer callbacks. Every return visit for a failed seal takes time. Older cottages and farmhouses around Little Tey can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
