New build mastic for homes and businesses in Sewardstone
Snagging sealant properly means taking the failed bead out completely. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. We work on show homes, plot handovers and skirting & floors, and people most often call us about gaps behind new kitchen upstands and sealant that never bonded to the surface.
Shops, offices and commercial units across London have hard-wearing floors with movement joints that need resealing as they wear, while new homes need a neat, sound finish around frames, baths and kitchens before handover.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

New build mastic around Sewardstone
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
As a London address, Sewardstone can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Sewardstone: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Enfield Lock station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Sewardstone?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
Can I send you my snagging list?
Yes. Send the list and a few pictures of the sealant items. We will tell you if anything on it isn’t a sealant job.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
How do I get a quote for new build mastic in Sewardstone?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing and where.
How long before the joint can be used?
Cure times vary by product and the conditions. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
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.
Common problems we fix in Sewardstone
New homes are full of moisture from plaster, screed and concrete, which takes a year or two to dry out. As it does, timber shrinks and joints open and the sealant has to cope with the movement.
People generally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
For new homes near Enfield Lock station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
What your quote should include
- How long to leave it before use
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Who turns up on the day
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
Why act early in Sewardstone
Sealant done properly at handover means fewer callbacks. Snagging visits for failed sealant cost time on every plot. In a flat in Sewardstone, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
What you get with us
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sewardstone
Landlords and agents in Sewardstone can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
How we quote for new build mastic
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- Whether the work is at height
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The type of sealant required
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.
Asking for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- If someone has resealed it before
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we will explain what’s involved.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
Keep pictures of the joints and any snagging correspondence with your builder. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.
The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Small faults turn into leaks if left.
What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Sewardstone. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- 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.
- Each area is checked and left with its cure time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any parking rules near the property
