What happens on the day

Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours in a single home. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Seven Kings. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.

  1. We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
  2. Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
  3. Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
  4. A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
  5. Each area is checked and left with its cure time.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on
  • Mention any tricky access

Advice

New build mastic for homes and businesses in Seven Kings

Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. In both, preparation makes the difference since hurried prep is behind a lot of new-build failures. Common call-outs are for worktop and upstand sealant coming away and cracked caulk along new skirting, across show homes, bathrooms & en suites and plot handovers.

Shops, offices and commercial units across London have hard-wearing floors with movement joints that need resealing as they wear, and new homes need their plot mastic finished properly before handover, in Seven Kings and beyond.

Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Seven Kings and across Greater London.

New homes and floors in Seven Kings

Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Many of London’s new homes are flats in bigger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent.

Seven Kings is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. If you’ve bought a new home near Seven Kings station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Your questions about new build mastic in Seven Kings

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Seven Kings station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.

Do you cover Seven Kings for new build mastic?

Yes, Seven Kings is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Let us know what needs doing and where. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.

When is the best time to reseal in a new build?

Where water is getting through, do not wait. Hairline cosmetic gaps can wait until the house has settled.

How long should I leave it?

It depends on the product. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.

Do I need to be at home?

That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access.

Will you leave a mess?

Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.

Are you insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured.

Landlord and commercial work in Seven Kings

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

Surface by surface

Show homes

We seal show-home bathrooms, kitchens and frames. Tell us when the home is open so we can plan around it.

Bathrooms and en suites

En suite seals are easy to miss on a snagging list until they leak. Resealing properly keeps water where it belongs.

Should I try it myself first?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

What affects the cost of new build mastic

You’ll get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:

  • The size of the job
  • How many areas need sealing
  • Whether the work is at height
  • When we can work, for business premises

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.

Helping us quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

For a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the location and a short description of the problem. We’ll send you a clear quote before any work starts.

Leave it or put it right?

A tube of sealant from the DIY shop won’t fix the cause: grit, unprimed surfaces and old layers underneath. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Seven Kings, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Why book with us

  • More than 20 years in sealant work

When something else is needed

To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:

  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
  • Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
  • Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath

If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
