About our new build mastic in Chinbrook
Across Chinbrook, we work for both new-home owners and the builders handing those homes over. Whether it’s one en suite or a run of plots, the method is the same: cut out, clean, prime where needed and reseal neatly. Common call-outs are for gaps behind new kitchen upstands and shower seals failing in the first year or two, on show homes, skirting & floors and plot handovers.
New flats are going up across London, many of them in larger developments. Snagging there often goes through the developer or managing agent, and failed shower seals, open skirting joints and gaps at thresholds are typical.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

New build mastic in Chinbrook: local notes
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
As a London address, Chinbrook can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. For new homes near Grove Park station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

What the job involves on each surface
Bathrooms and en suites
Baths, showers, basins and trays in new bathrooms are the most common new-build reseal. The old sealant comes out and anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in after cleaning and priming.
Show homes
Bathrooms, kitchens and frames in show homes are sealed or resealed to a neat finish ready for viewings. We will plan around viewing times.
FAQs for Chinbrook
Can you do new build mastic in Chinbrook?
Yes, Chinbrook is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is parking an issue for new build mastic in Chinbrook?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. Several properties can be quoted together, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.
How long should I leave it?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?
It depends on whether water is getting through. Failed seals in wet areas need doing now, while small cosmetic gaps can wait a while.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
How it works
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. In Chinbrook, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Record problems with dated pictures
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Don’t wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
Keep the bathroom ventilated, especially in the first year. Use the extractor fan or open a window after showers.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Resealing before mould gets in saves a harder job later.
Why act early in Chinbrook
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but water getting through cannot. Not sure whether yours can wait? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few pictures and we will give you a straight answer. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Chinbrook, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
