Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchens
New-kitchen sealant is often applied in a rush. We take it out and reseal neatly, colour-matched where it shows.
Windows and doors
External mastic around new windows and doors is sometimes rushed or missed. We reseal it with a weatherproof, flexible sealant.
New build mastic for homes and businesses in Bitchet Green
Building dust is behind a lot of failed new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the sealant actually sticks rather than sitting on a layer of grit. If you have sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces and kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall, we can help, whatever the surface.
Older homes in small places like Bitchet Green often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Honest limits
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before booking.

Why deal with it now?
Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Dealing with it early keeps the damage away from ceilings, floors and finishes. Around Bitchet Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Record problems with dated photos
Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents, which can damage the surface.
A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant and protects the rest of the house.

Advice
Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Signs you need new build mastic in Bitchet Green
Later trades and the final clean can damage fresh sealant. If it’s disturbed before curing, the joint can be left weak, and the problem shows up after you move in.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
If you’ve bought a new home near Kemsing station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.
