New build mastic in Allen's Green, done properly
Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. In both, preparation makes the difference. We work on kitchens, skirting & floors and windows & doors, and the jobs we see most are sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces and gaps opening as the house dries out and settles.
Somewhere as small as Allen's Green, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

How it works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. In a small place like Allen's Green, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Each joint is checked for movement before we start.
- Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
- We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
- Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
- The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Clear the area around the work

Leave it or put it right?
DIY kits don’t solve the main problems with new-build sealant: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Cutting out, cleaning and priming are what make the difference. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Allen's Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Yes. Second-fix sealing in bathrooms, kitchens, frames and floors is part of what we do. We clean and prime joints properly to keep callbacks down.
Will you just run a new bead over the existing one?
No. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to the old layer, so sealing over the top fails quickly. We cut the old bead out completely.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
Watch the joints as the house settles. Hairline gaps can open as timber and plaster dry, and they’re simple to reseal once movement has slowed.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Damaged fittings that need replacing
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
