New build mastic in Brownbread Street
Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. Both get the same care over preparation. If you’re dealing with leaking shower tray seals in a new home and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Brownbread Street, 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.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

Quotes for new build mastic in Brownbread Street
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Any mould that needs treating
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The number and length of the joints
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- The rough size of the job
- If someone has resealed it before
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Different surfaces, different methods
Windows and doors
The gap between a new frame and its plaster reveal often opens up. We cut out the cracked bead and reseal with a flexible sealant.
Bathrooms and en suites
New-build bathrooms and en suites are where sealant fails most often. We cut out the failed bead, clean and prime, and reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can get on with your day. The job usually takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In a small place like Brownbread Street, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out, with no layer left behind.
- We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.
Preparing for the visit

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you are covered
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Silicone is normally left for about a day.
Do not let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. After that, putting it right may fall to you, so raise it early.

Brownbread Street questions
Do you cover Brownbread Street for new build mastic?
Yes, Brownbread Street is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
I let a flat near Battle station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?
Lots of new homes see sealant crack early. Poor preparation at handover adds to it.
What happens if it’s left?
For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Snagging visits for failed sealant cost time on every plot, and they’re avoidable with good preparation. Around Brownbread Street, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
