New build mastic for homes and businesses in Mulberry Green
Some new-home owners let the house settle before resealing. For small cosmetic gaps, that is reasonable, but a seal that is letting water through needs doing now. If you are dealing with internal frame sealant that has split and new-build shower sealant that has already split, we can help, on show homes, kitchens and skirting & floors alike.
Work in a small place like Mulberry Green just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

What happens if it’s left?
If you’re still in the builder’s snagging or warranty period, ask them to put it right first. If it’s slow, or the same joint keeps failing, a proper reseal from a specialist is the next step. In a small place like Mulberry Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
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 make a difference.

Joints and finishes in Mulberry Green homes
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you’ve bought a new home near Marks Tey station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Mulberry Green questions
Do you cover smaller places like Mulberry Green?
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 help a landlord with a rental near Marks Tey station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Should I wait before resealing?
It depends on whether water is getting through. A leaking shower or bath seal should be redone straight away, while small cosmetic gaps can wait a while.
Do you use white or clear sealant?
The colour is chosen to suit the tiles, worktop or frame. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. Every job comes with a one-year guarantee.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.

We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Mulberry Green and across Essex. We can quote a run of properties together.
Common problems we fix in Mulberry Green
A new house holds a lot of water from the build, which takes a year or two to dry out. As it does, timber shrinks and joints open and the sealant has to cope with the movement.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
Around Mulberry Green, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Before booking anyone
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Which colour the sealant will be
- How hidden problems are handled
- Is VAT in the price?
What affects the cost of new build mastic
There’s no set price list. What we look at:
- The product the joint needs
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number of rooms or windows
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Where the property is
- The rough size of the job
- The type of property
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that is easy.
What the job involves on each surface
Skirting and floors
New homes often develop a gap between skirting and floor. A flexible sealant closes it without cracking like caulk.
Windows and doors
Draughts around new frames are often a sealant gap. We check and reseal the frame edges.
What we do, step by step
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere as small as Mulberry Green, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The failed sealant is removed completely, with no layer left behind.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Move anything stored near the joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Keep photos and emails about snagging items
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
Do not stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray in the first few weeks. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.
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.
