About our new build mastic in Curteis' Corner
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the new bead bonds properly instead of bonding to the dust. If you have leaking shower tray seals in a new home and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks, we can help, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Curteis' Corner, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Yes, Curteis' Corner is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
I let a flat near Headcorn station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
What sealant do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.
Do you take on second-fix sealing for builders?
Yes. Plot mastic and second-fix sealing for developers is part of our work. Send us the plot schedule and we will quote.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
How long does the job take?
Most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Record problems with dated pictures
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
Do not stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Resealing before mould gets in keeps the job straightforward.
What the job involves on each surface
Kitchens
As a new house dries, worktops and walls shift a little, opening gaps behind the upstand. A fresh flexible bead closes them.
Plot handovers
Good preparation at handover saves snagging later. We clean out building dust before sealing.
What we’re called out for in Curteis' Corner
Sealant applied onto damp surfaces doesn’t bond well. Site programmes don’t always leave time for joints to dry.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
In and around Curteis' Corner, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Comparing quotes
- How much experience the applicator has
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- The length of the guarantee
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
