Margery: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords with property near Reigate station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.

Do you cover smaller places like Margery?

Yes. Margery is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.

Which products 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.

What does new build mastic cost?

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.

What colour sealant will you use?

White and clear are the most common, but other colours are available. We match the colour to the finish and agree it with you.

Where are you based?

We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

Will there be a smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.

New build mastic in Margery, done properly

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. We work on skirting & floors, bathrooms & en suites and plot handovers, and people most often call us about leaking shower tray seals in a new home and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks.

Around Margery, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Do you need new build mastic in Margery?

When the heating goes on in the first winter, the house dries fast. Gaps open along skirting, frames and worktops and cracks appear in the sealant.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Cracked caulk along new skirting
  • Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
  • Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
  • Frame joints opening as the plaster dries

If you’ve bought a new home near Reigate station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a sealant specialist

Should I try it myself first?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

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 fails, we can still redo it.

What the job involves on each surface

Skirting and floors

Wet-area floor joints need a flexible seal. We seal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.

Windows and doors

A draught at a new window can be a missed or failed joint. We look at the joints and reseal where needed.

How the visit works

A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Somewhere as small as Margery, access is often the only tricky part. 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. Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out, with no layer left behind.
  3. Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
  4. We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
  5. We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Keeping the joints in good condition

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Raise failed sealant with the developer while you are covered
  • Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
  • Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
  • Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop

Ventilation matters in a new home, which is still drying out. Run the fan or open a window after bathing so moisture doesn’t sit on the sealant.

The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak in a busy bathroom.

New homes and floors in Margery

Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

Leave it or put it right?

Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Dealing with it early keeps the damage away from ceilings, floors and finishes. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Margery, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first.
