New build mastic in Rolvenden, done properly
Some owners wait for the first year’s movement before having joints redone. That makes sense for small gaps that are just cosmetic, but a seal that is letting water through needs doing now. We work on skirting & floors, plot handovers and kitchens, and common reasons people get in touch are kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall and messy sealant that spoils new finishes.
Older homes in small places like Rolvenden often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

What affects the cost of new build mastic
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The product the joint needs
- How much there is to do
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- How we’d reach the joints
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Whether it has been sealed before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
For new build mastic in Rolvenden, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. Tell us what the problem is and where, and we will agree the price before any work begins.
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it can’t bond to what’s underneath. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. Older cottages and farmhouses around Rolvenden can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

Rolvenden questions
Do you cover Rolvenden for new build mastic?
Yes, Rolvenden is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Is there a guarantee on new build mastic in Rolvenden?
All our work, in Rolvenden and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
How much does new build mastic cost in Rolvenden?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing and where.
Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?
No. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to the old layer, so it soon lifts and traps water. We cut the old bead out completely.
How long does the job take?
That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. We will tell you when we quote.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Should I go to my builder first?
Report it to the builder first while you’re covered. If it isn’t resolved, we can reseal it properly.
Will it make a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
The process
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours in a single home. For a village or hamlet like Rolvenden, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out down to clean surfaces.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Advice
Do you need new build mastic in Rolvenden?
When the heating goes on in the first winter, the house dries fast. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly and cracks appear in the sealant.
The most common problems we see are:
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
In and around Rolvenden, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Questions to ask before booking
- The length of the guarantee
- Is VAT in the price?
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
Different surfaces, different methods
Bathrooms and en suites
En suite showers are a common source of leaks into the room below. A proper reseal keeps water in the tray.
Show homes
Show homes need sealant that looks right from day one. Every bead is neat and coloured to suit the room.
Joints and finishes in Rolvenden homes
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
