Questions from Shillinglee
Can you do new build mastic in Shillinglee?
Yes, Shillinglee is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Witley station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Should I wait before resealing?
It depends on whether water is getting through. Failed seals in wet areas need doing now, but cosmetic gaps can wait for movement to slow.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, always. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, wherever you are.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you use white or clear sealant?
White and clear are the most common, but sealant comes in other colours too. We match the colour to the finish before we begin.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. Over-sealing traps mould and water and soon fails. We remove every bit of the old bead before resealing.
New build mastic in Shillinglee, done properly
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. If you’re dealing with new-build shower sealant that has already split and kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall, we can put it right.
In a village or hamlet like Shillinglee, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

What new build mastic looks like in Shillinglee
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

Why act early in Shillinglee
Running a new bead over the builder’s sealant might look tidy for a few weeks, but it cannot bond to what’s underneath. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. In a small place like Shillinglee, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before any work starts.
Why book with us
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Old sealant always removed completely
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.

How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours in a single home.

- We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- 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.
How to prepare
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about any water getting in
How to get a quote

Advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
Watch the joints as the house settles. Small gaps can appear as the house dries, and they’re simple to reseal once movement has slowed.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Resealing before mould gets in saves a harder job later.
Do you need new build mastic in Shillinglee?
The wrong product is sometimes used in the wrong place: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Neither lasts long.
The problems people generally mention when they call include:
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
Around Shillinglee, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
