About our new build mastic in Broadford
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. Each joint is cleaned of dust and primed where the product calls for it, so the new bead bonds properly instead of bonding to the dust. We work on bathrooms & en suites, show homes and plot handovers, and common reasons people get in touch are messy sealant that spoils new finishes and new-build shower sealant that has already split.
Somewhere as small as Broadford, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What the job involves on each surface
Bathrooms and en suites
En suite showers are a common source of leaks into the room below. A proper reseal keeps water in the tray.
Skirting and floors
Floors and skirting move as the house dries and the heating runs. Caulk cracks; a flexible sealant moves with it painted or coloured to suit.
What new build mastic looks like in Broadford
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
- Do not seal over failed sealant yourself
- Get a leaking seal dealt with straight away
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it, which can damage the surface.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Resealing before mould gets in saves a harder job later.
How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It usually takes a few hours in a single home. Somewhere as small as Broadford, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Related advice
DIY versus a professional finish
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 fails, we can still redo it.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Your questions about new build mastic in Broadford
Can you do new build mastic in Broadford?
Yes, Broadford is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Broadford?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Do you work for developers?
Yes. We work through plots to your schedule ready for handover. Get in touch with the number of plots and the scope for a clear quote.
Do you work through snagging lists?
Yes. We often work straight from a snagging list. We will go through the sealant items and agree what we’ll do.
Common problems we fix in Broadford
Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: decorators’ caulk in a wet area, or a stiff sealant where there’s movement. Both fail early.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
If you’ve bought a new home near Shalford station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.
What your quote should include
- How much experience the applicator has
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What the cure time is
- Whether they’re fully insured
Why deal with it now?
Running a new bead over the builder’s sealant might look tidy for a few weeks, but it won’t bond to the old layer. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. In a small place like Broadford, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.
