New build mastic in Chadwell Heath
A new house keeps drying out and settling for its first couple of years. Timber shrinks, plaster dries and baths and trays bed down, and sealant applied in a hurry at handover can split. Typical jobs include joints pulling apart as timber shrinks and smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging, on plot handovers, show homes and windows & doors.
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments. Snagging there often goes through the developer or managing agent, and shower seals that fail early, skirting joints that open up and gaps at thresholds are all common snags.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. The job usually takes a few hours in a single home, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access

Advice
How the job changes by surface
Plot handovers
Taking time over preparation reduces return visits. We clean out building dust before sealing and prime where the product needs it.
Bathrooms and en suites
En suite seals are easy to miss on a snagging list until they leak. A proper reseal keeps water in the tray.
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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
When to call us in Chadwell Heath
On many sites, sealant goes on in the final rush before handover. Dusty, unprimed joints are common, and the sealant sits on grit instead of the surface.
People generally contact us after spotting something like this:
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
Chadwell Heath is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
Before you book anyone
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- How long the guarantee is
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- What preparation is included
Leave it or put it right?
A tube of sealant from the DIY shop won’t fix the cause: grit, unprimed surfaces and old layers underneath. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and once it shows in Chadwell Heath, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

What sealant work can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Follow the cure time we give you
- Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge 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.
