New build mastic for homes and businesses in Pattiswick
In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water reaches anything behind it. Typical jobs include worktop and upstand sealant coming away and sealant that never bonded to the surface, across plot handovers, windows & doors and kitchens.
Around Pattiswick, 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.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

Will there be a smell?

Will you leave a mess?

How we quote for new build mastic
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- The type of sealant required
- Access and height
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number and length of the joints
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- If someone has resealed it before
- The address or postcode of the job
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How it works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. In a small place like Pattiswick, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
- A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
- Finally, each room is checked and you are given the cure time.
How to prepare
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Common problems we fix in Pattiswick
The first winter with the heating on dries a new home quickly. Gaps open along skirting, frames and worktops and cracked sealant shows up.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
For new homes near Braintree Freeport station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
Before you book anyone
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
- Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.
Do not let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. After that, putting it right may fall to you so report it promptly.
Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
