About our new build mastic in Twitham

We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders, and snagging reseals for new-home owners. Both get the same care over preparation, because that’s what rushed new-build sealant generally lacks. Typical jobs include second-fix sealing on new plots and leaking shower tray seals in a new home, on bathrooms & en suites, windows & doors and plot handovers.

Somewhere as small as Twitham, 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 our work comes with a 12-month guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Get a leaking seal dealt with straight away
  • Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
  • Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
  • Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured

Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Silicone is normally left for about a day before water reaches them.

Leave a failed new-build seal and water can reach the floor and the ceiling below. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant and protects the rest of the house.

Common questions in Twitham

Do you cover smaller places like Twitham?

Yes. Twitham is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Do you work for landlords with property near Adisham 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.

Is it worth trying it myself?

Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.

How long will you be here?

Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, including the preparation. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

How long before the joint can be used?

That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.

Is there any odour?

That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

What affects the cost of new build mastic

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:

  • The product the joint needs
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The size of the job
  • The number of rooms or windows

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What to tell us for a quote

To help us quote quickly, let us know:

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • The type of property
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs

We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details.

For landlords and businesses

From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll give you a quote.

What we do, step by step

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself normally takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Twitham, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  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. We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
  4. New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
  5. Finally, each room is checked and you are given the cure time.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the work
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Mention any tricky access

Getting a quote

For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll explain what’s involved before giving you a price.

When something else is needed

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:

  • Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
  • Broken tiles or a split tray
  • Structural cracks in walls or ceilings

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

What the job involves on each surface

Windows and doors

The gap between a new frame and its plaster reveal often opens up. We remove cracked sealant and apply a flexible one in a matching colour.

Kitchens

Worktops in new homes can move slightly as the house dries, which opens gaps along the back. A fresh flexible bead closes them.
