About our new build mastic in Bradfield Heath
We work in new homes and on new-build sites across Bradfield Heath. One shower or a whole phase of plots, the method does not change: remove, clean, prime where needed, then a neat new bead. Common call-outs are for worktop and upstand sealant coming away and plot mastic for developers ahead of handover, across skirting & floors, show homes and plot handovers.
Around Bradfield Heath, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Surface by surface
Kitchens
Sink joints are wet all the time. We use a sealant suited to kitchens suited to the job.
Windows and doors
The gap between a new frame and its plaster reveal often opens up. We remove cracked sealant and apply a flexible one that suits the frame.
Honest limits
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- A tray or bath that isn’t properly supported, until it’s fixed
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Small faults turn into leaks if left over time.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
How the visit works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Somewhere like Bradfield Heath 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.
- 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.
- A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
- Each area is checked and left with its cure time.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Joints and finishes in Bradfield Heath homes
Bradfield Heath is within about 2 miles of the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so it’s worth checking at snagging. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
For new homes near Mistley station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

Do you need new build mastic in Bradfield Heath?
Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Neither lasts long.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
Around Bradfield Heath, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
