New build mastic in Boxley

Some new-home owners let the house settle before resealing. That makes sense for small gaps that are just cosmetic, but a failed shower or bath seal shouldn’t wait. We work on show homes, windows & doors and bathrooms & en suites, and common reasons people get in touch are internal frame sealant that has split and second-fix sealing on new plots.

Older homes in small places like Boxley often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

What the job involves on each surface

Windows and doors

A draught at a new window can be a missed or failed joint. We look at the joints and reseal where needed.

Skirting and floors

Floors and skirting move as the house dries and the heating runs. We use a flexible product rather than caulk painted or coloured to suit.

Should I try it myself first?

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

New build mastic around Boxley

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • A tray or bath that isn’t properly supported, until it’s fixed
  • Plumbing faults behind the sealant
  • Settlement cracks that need a surveyor

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

What we seal

  • Windows & doors
  • Show homes
  • Skirting & floors
  • Kitchens
  • Plot handovers
  • Bathrooms & en suites

How to look after the new joints

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
  • Open a window or run the fan after bathing
  • Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
  • Act quickly if a seal starts to leak

Ventilation matters in a new home, which is still drying out. Run the fan or open a window after bathing.

A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Have it resealed, and the tray or bath checked, before it gets worse.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Boxley

Landlords and agents in Boxley can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will quote.

Why act early in Boxley

It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. It’s one visit, one quote and one set of cure times. Older cottages and farmhouses around Boxley can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Why Boxley customers choose us

  • We are fully insured
  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
  • Colour picked to suit the job
  • Old sealant always removed completely

How the visit works

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours in a single home. In a small place like Boxley, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
  2. We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
  3. We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
  4. New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
  5. The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.

Getting ready for the visit

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Getting a quote

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that is easy.
