How we handle new build mastic in Chute Forest
A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water gets into the floor or walls. We’re often asked to deal with gaps between new skirting and floors and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks, on skirting & floors, kitchens and plot handovers.
In a village or hamlet like Chute Forest, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How the job changes by surface
Bathrooms and en suites
Trays and baths in new builds settle as they’re used. The joint is stripped back before the new bead goes in.
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 in a matching colour.
Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- Broken tiles or a split tray
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Silicone is usually left for about a day.
A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Early resealing keeps the job small.
