New Build Mastic in Sarre
Problem with your new-build sealant joints in Sarre? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
New build mastic in Sarre, done properly
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the sealant actually sticks instead of bonding to the dust. If you have sealant that never bonded to the surface and plot mastic for developers ahead of handover, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Sarre, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

New homes and floors in Sarre
Sarre is within about 3 miles of the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so any gaps are best picked up early. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Around Sarre, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like Sarre needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Related advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchens
Beside the sink, the joint takes water every day. We use a sealant suited to kitchens.
Windows and doors
External mastic around new windows and doors is sometimes rushed or missed. We reseal it with a weatherproof, flexible sealant.
What affects the cost of new build mastic
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- The size of the job
- Any mould that needs treating
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How easy the joints are to reach
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
Helping us quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- The address or postcode of the job
- The rough size of the job
- If someone has resealed it before
We do not publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
When it isn’t the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
- Broken tiles or a split tray
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Common problems we fix in Sarre
The wrong product is sometimes used in the wrong place: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Both fail early.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
If you’ve bought a new home near Minster station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

FAQs for Sarre
Do you cover smaller places like Sarre?
Yes. Sarre is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
I let a flat near Minster station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will explain our choice.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?
Start with your builder while their snagging or warranty period runs. After that, or if their repair keeps failing, we can do it with our one-year guarantee.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?
New homes dry out and move in their first couple of years, and sealant is often applied quickly onto dusty surfaces. Both lead to early failure.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
