New Build Mastic in Appleshaw
Plot mastic for developers and snagging failed sealant in new homes for householders, landlords and businesses in Appleshaw. ARBOMaster approved applicators, fully insured, with a 12-month guarantee.
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
Why it’s worth doing now in Appleshaw
For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Every return visit for a failed seal takes time, and they’re avoidable with good preparation. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Appleshaw, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

How we handle new build mastic in Appleshaw
We work in new homes and on new-build sites across Appleshaw. Whether it’s one en suite or a run of plots, the method is the same: cut out, clean, prime where needed and reseal neatly. Common call-outs are for cracks appearing as a new home settles and smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging, across bathrooms & en suites, skirting & floors and windows & doors.
For a small place like Appleshaw, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re covered after we have gone.

What we’re called out for in Appleshaw
When the heating goes on in the first winter, the house dries fast. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
In and around Appleshaw, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- How much experience the applicator has
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Are they insured?
When it is not the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email

- Any access issues, like height or stairs
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that is easy.
Surface by surface
Plot handovers
We work through plots to your schedule, sealing each room ready for handover. Each joint is cleaned and primed where needed so the sealant lasts.
Show homes
In a show home, the sealant is on display. We lay neat, even beads in colours to suit the finishes.
The process
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere like Appleshaw needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
