How we quote for new build mastic
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The product the joint needs
- Whether the work is at height
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The number and length of the joints
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
What we need to know
When you contact us, these details help:
- How we’d reach the joints
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Roughly how big the job is
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we will come back to you with a quote.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep photos and emails about snagging items
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Do not seal over failed sealant yourself
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Most silicones need around a day to cure enough for use.
A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Have it resealed, and the tray or bath checked, before it gets worse.
Common questions in Norton Ash
Will you come out to Norton Ash?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Teynham 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’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
How long does the job take?
It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take a few hours in a single home. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?
That depends on the joint. A leaking shower or bath seal should be redone right away, while small cosmetic gaps can wait a while.
Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?
Report it to the builder first while you’re covered. If it is not resolved, we can reseal it properly.
Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?
It’s common, and there are generally two reasons: movement as the house dries and settles, and sealant laid onto dust without primer. A proper reseal deals with both.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It normally takes a few hours in a single home.
