New build mastic in Bradwell on Sea

Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the new bead bonds properly rather than sitting on a layer of grit. We work on kitchens, windows & doors and skirting & floors, and people most often call us about gaps behind new kitchen upstands and internal frame sealant that has split.

Somewhere as small as Bradwell on Sea, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Should I try it myself first?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

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.

What the job involves on each surface

Skirting and floors

Where the floor meets a bath panel or kitchen plinth, the joint keeps mop water out. We seal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.

Plot handovers

Developers can send the plot schedule and specification and we’ll quote. Sealant work across the plot is covered to the agreed spec.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use the extractor fan every time you shower
  • Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
  • Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
  • Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives

Don’t stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray in the first few weeks. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.

A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Early resealing keeps the job small.

  3. We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
  4. Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
