New build mastic in Broom Street: local notes
Broom Street is close to the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so it’s worth checking at snagging. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Around Broom Street, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

New build mastic in Broom Street, done properly
If your new home has a leaking shower seal, open skirting joints or untidy sealant, we can help. While the builder’s snagging or warranty period runs, report it to them first. We work on show homes, plot handovers and kitchens, and common reasons people get in touch are sealant work across a run of new homes and cracks appearing as a new home settles.
Older homes in small places like Broom Street often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Common problems we fix in Broom Street
The wrong product is sometimes used in the wrong place: decorators’ caulk in a wet area, or a stiff sealant where there’s movement. Neither lasts long.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
For new homes near Faversham station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Who turns up on the day
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether you can choose the colour
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
- Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
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. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant.
What sealant work can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
- Damaged fittings that need replacing
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.
