Teasley Mead: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords with property near Ashurst Kent station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Will you come out to Teasley Mead?

Yes. Teasley Mead is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

What sealant do you use?

Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.

How long does the job take?

A typical job takes a few hours in a single home. We will confirm how long when we quote.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.

Can I send you my snagging list?

Yes. We often work straight from a snagging list. We’ll go through the sealant items and agree what we will do.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.

Do you take on second-fix sealing for builders?

Yes. We take on second-fix sealant work across new plots. We clean and prime joints properly to keep callbacks down.

What happens if it’s left?

Small cosmetic gaps can wait for the house to settle, but water getting through can’t. Not sure whether yours can wait? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer. Around Teasley Mead, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

What affects the quote in Teasley Mead

You will get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:

  • The product the joint needs
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • The number and length of the joints

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

What we need to know

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:

  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • Where the property is
  • Whether it has been sealed before

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you are ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

DIY versus a professional finish

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.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

What sealant work can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
  • A tray or bath that isn’t properly supported, until it’s fixed
  • Plumbing faults behind the sealant

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.

Common problems we fix in Teasley Mead

Baths and trays settle under load once the home is lived in. A bath sealed empty drops slightly when filled, straining the joint.

The problems people usually mention when they call are:

  • Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
  • Second-fix sealing on new plots
  • Internal frame sealant that has split
  • Cracked caulk along new skirting

If you’ve bought a new home near Ashurst Kent station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

How to choose a mastic man

How it works

A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. For a village or hamlet like Teasley Mead, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
  2. We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
  3. We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
  4. Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
  5. The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.

Before we arrive

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Ask for a quote

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email photos if that is easy.

For landlords and businesses

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
