About our new build mastic in Beckley
Failed shower seals, gaps along the skirting and messy beads are common items on a new-home snagging list. While the builder’s snagging or warranty period runs, report it to them first. If you have second-fix sealing on new plots and gaps behind new kitchen upstands, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Beckley, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Why act early in Beckley
A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Dealing with it early keeps the damage away from ceilings, floors and finishes. Older cottages and farmhouses around Beckley 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 a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first.
Why us?
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- Arbo and Everbuild products
- We never seal over old sealant

How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it, which can damage the surface.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you are in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you so report it promptly.
