About our new build mastic in Benenden
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover using the right product for each joint. If you have plot mastic for developers ahead of handover and new-build shower sealant that has already split, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Benenden, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Surface by surface
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.
Kitchens
As a new house dries, worktops and walls shift a little, opening gaps behind the upstand. We reseal them with a flexible sealant.
Common problems we fix in Benenden
Fresh sealant can be knocked or cut by trades finishing off. If it’s disturbed before curing, the joint can be left weak.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
Whether the job is in Benenden itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

For landlords and businesses

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Common questions in Benenden
Do you cover smaller places like Benenden?
Yes, Benenden is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is there a guarantee on new build mastic in Benenden?
All our work, in Benenden and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours in a single home. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. Over-sealing traps mould and water and soon fails. All the old sealant comes out before work begins.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
How long before the joint can be used?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We will give you the cure time for the product we used.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes, regularly. Several properties can be quoted together, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Follow the cure time we give you
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it as they wear the bead.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Dealing with it before it goes black saves a harder job later.
What happens on the day
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours in a single home. For a village or hamlet like Benenden, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- 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.
- Each area is checked and left with its cure time.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Move anything stored near the joints

What happens if it’s left?
Resealing everything on a snagging list in one visit is usually simpler than chasing joints one at a time. It’s one visit, one quote and one set of cure times for the lot. Older cottages and farmhouses around Benenden can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.
