What affects the cost of new build mastic

For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

  • The size of the job
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • How easy the joints are to reach

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What to tell us for a quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • The address or postcode of the job

Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details, and photos are welcome.

New build mastic in Stoke, done properly

Failed shower seals, gaps along the skirting and messy beads are common items on a new-home snagging list. While the builder’s snagging or warranty period runs, report it to them first and if that stalls, we can do it. We work on skirting & floors, plot handovers and windows & doors, and common reasons people get in touch are joints pulling apart as timber shrinks and skirting joints opening in the first winter.

Somewhere as small as Stoke, 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.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Stoke and everywhere else we cover.

New build mastic in Stoke: local notes

Stoke is close to the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so it’s worth checking at snagging. 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 Stoke, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it. For jobs in and around Stoke, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

Your questions about new build mastic in Stoke

Do you cover Stoke for new build mastic?

Yes, Stoke is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Will you come out to Stoke?

Yes, Stoke is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

How long before the joint can be used?

Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We will tell you how long to leave the joint before we leave.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.

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

That depends on the joint. A leaking shower or bath seal should be redone right away, while small cosmetic gaps can wait a while.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.

Should I try DIY first?

Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

DIY versus a professional finish

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.

What we do, step by step

A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Somewhere like Stoke needs a little journey planning: 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.

  1. We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
  2. We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
  3. Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
  4. A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
  5. We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.

Before we arrive

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the work

Advice

What sealant work cannot fix

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:

  • Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
  • Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
  • Broken tiles or a split tray

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Where we work in Stoke

  • Bathrooms & en suites
  • Windows & doors
  • Plot handovers
  • Kitchens
  • Skirting & floors
  • Show homes

How the job changes by surface

Plot handovers

Send us the schedule and any sealant specification. Sealant work across the plot is covered.

Bathrooms and en suites

Baths, showers, basins and trays in new bathrooms are the most common new-build reseal. The old sealant comes out and anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in after cleaning and priming.

Why deal with it now?

DIY kits don’t solve the main problems with new-build sealant: grit, unprimed surfaces and old layers underneath. Cutting out, cleaning and priming are what make the difference. Older cottages and farmhouses around Stoke can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
