Surface 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.
Show homes
We can refresh show-home sealant that has discoloured or been knocked. The old bead comes out and a clean new one goes in.
New build mastic in Bell Green, done properly
We never seal over a failed new-build bead. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so the joint is cut out, cleaned, dried and resealed. We’re often asked to deal with shower seals failing in the first year or two and cracked sealant around new window and door frames, on bathrooms & en suites, plot handovers and show homes.
London homes range from new-build flats to period conversions with new floors laid over old boards. Every joint between floor, skirting and threshold has to cope with some movement.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Bell Green questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Lower Sydenham station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is parking an issue for new build mastic in Bell Green?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot, so mention what’s available when you book.
Do you cover Bell Green?
Yes, we do. Our applicators work in Bell Green, and the service is the same as everywhere else.
Can you do plot mastic on a new development?
Yes. We work through plots to your schedule, room by room. Get in touch with the number of plots and the scope for a clear quote.
Will you just run a new bead over the existing one?
No. Over-sealing traps mould and water and soon fails. We remove every bit of the old bead before resealing.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
How do I get a quote for new build mastic in Bell Green?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.
Should I wait before resealing?
Any seal that is leaking should be redone straight away. Cosmetic gaps can wait until the first year or two of movement has passed.
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
New build mastic in Bell Green: local notes
Many of London’s new homes are flats in bigger developments, where snagging may go through the developer or managing agent. 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.
If you’ve bought a new home near Lower Sydenham station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple:
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It helps if anything else comes up during the warranty period.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Dealing with it before it goes black saves a harder job later.
How it works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. In Bell Green, flats, stairs and shared entrances are part of the routine. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
- 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
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Other services in Bell Green
Do you need new build mastic in Bell Green?
Once people move in, baths and trays take weight and bed down. If a bath wasn’t filled when it was sealed, the bead is stretched the first time it’s used and can tear.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
Bell Green is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.
Questions to ask before booking
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What product goes in the joint
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- How the colour is chosen
What sealant work can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
- Broken tiles or a split tray
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.
