New build mastic for homes and businesses in Bovinger
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over using the right product for each joint. We work on bathrooms & en suites, skirting & floors and kitchens, and common reasons people get in touch are skirting joints opening in the first winter and sealant work across a run of new homes.
Around Bovinger, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Don’t wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
Keep the bathroom ventilated, especially in the first year. Use the extractor fan or open a window after showers so moisture does not sit on the sealant.
Don’t let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. Once it ends, the repair may be down to you.

What we do, step by step
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours in a single home for a typical job. Somewhere like Bovinger needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.
Preparing for the visit

New homes and floors in Bovinger
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
For jobs in and around Bovinger, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish. Around Bovinger, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Joints and surfaces we work on
- Kitchens
- Show homes
- Plot handovers
- Windows & doors
- Bathrooms & en suites
- Skirting & floors
Different surfaces, different methods
Bathrooms and en suites
Shower trays in new homes often move slightly in the first year. The joint is stripped back before the new bead goes in.
Skirting and floors
Wet-area floor joints need a flexible seal. They get a flexible, water-resistant sealant.
Why it’s worth doing now in Bovinger
DIY kits don’t solve the main problems with new-build sealant: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. In a small place like Bovinger, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
