About our new build mastic in Ulting
Developers send us the plot schedule and we work through it. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover with a sealant suited to each area. We work on kitchens, skirting & floors and bathrooms & en suites, and people most often call us about gaps opening as the house dries out and settles and beads laid onto grit and dust from the build.
For a small place like Ulting, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Ulting and across Essex.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.

What we’re called out for in Ulting
New homes are full of moisture from plaster, screed and concrete, which takes a year or two to dry out. Drying timber shrinks and pulls joints apart.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
In and around Ulting, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

How the job changes by surface
Windows and doors
External mastic around new windows and doors is sometimes rushed or missed. It’s resealed with an exterior sealant suited to the frame and wall.
Bathrooms and en suites
En suite seals are easy to miss on a snagging list until they leak. A proper reseal keeps water in the tray.
Common questions in Ulting
Can you do new build mastic in Ulting?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Ulting is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Do you cover smaller places like Ulting?
Yes, Ulting is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to the old layer, so sealing over the top fails quickly. We cut the old bead out completely.
How long will you be here?
Most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
How do I get a quote for new build mastic in Ulting?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote.
My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?
Your builder, if you are still in their snagging or warranty period. If that doesn’t work out, we are happy to quote with our one-year guarantee.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
