Plot mastic is carried out to the developer’s schedule. Joints are prepared properly before sealing to keep callbacks down.
Show homes
Show homes need sealant that looks right from day one. Every bead is neat and coloured to suit the room.
New build mastic in Chilmington Green
A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. When the finish is smeared, patchy or already cracking, it’s worth putting right early, before water reaches anything behind it. We work on show homes, plot handovers and kitchens, and the jobs we see most are untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list and plot mastic for developers ahead of handover.
Work in a small place like Chilmington Green just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we have gone.

Why deal with it now?
The builder is normally the first port of call while the snagging or warranty period runs. If it keeps failing or is not dealt with, we can reseal it properly. Older cottages and farmhouses around Chilmington Green can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

When to call us in Chilmington Green
Later trades and the final clean can damage fresh sealant. If it’s disturbed before curing, the joint can be left weak.
The most common problems we see are:
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
For new homes near Ashford International station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
