About our new build mastic in Ashford
Failed shower seals, gaps along the skirting and messy beads are common items on a new-home snagging list. If you are still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, tell them first. Typical jobs include cracks appearing as a new home settles and cracked sealant around new window and door frames, across show homes, skirting & floors and windows & doors.
Somewhere as small as Ashford, 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.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Ashford and across Hampshire.

What else we do in Ashford
Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
- Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
Keep photos of the joints and any snagging correspondence with your builder. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Small faults turn into leaks if left.
New homes and floors in Ashford
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Whether the job is in Ashford itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish. Around Ashford, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Common questions in Ashford
Is Ashford within the area you cover?
Yes. Ashford 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.
Is there a guarantee on new build mastic in Ashford?
All our work, in Ashford and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?
The colour is chosen to suit the tiles, worktop or frame. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
How long does the job take?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours in a single home. Bigger jobs take longer.
Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
Cracking in the first couple of years is common as timber and plaster dry out. Poor preparation at handover adds to it.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do.
How do I get a quote for new build mastic in Ashford?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before any work starts.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will explain our choice.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Ashford and across Hampshire. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured for the work.
How the job changes by surface
Skirting and floors
Wet-area floor joints need a flexible seal. They get a flexible, water-resistant sealant.
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 that suits the frame.
Why act early in Ashford
The builder is generally the first port of call while the snagging or warranty period runs. If it keeps failing or is not dealt with, we can reseal it properly. Older cottages and farmhouses around Ashford can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
