How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, depending on how much there is to do. Somewhere as small as East End, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
- Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
- We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
- New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
- We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.
How to prepare
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

New build mastic in East End
Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. In both, preparation makes the difference. We work on plot handovers, windows & doors and show homes, and common reasons people get in touch are second-fix sealing on new plots and beads laid onto grit and dust from the build.
Work in a small place like East End just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Why it’s worth doing now in East End
A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. Around East End, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray. Report any movement in a bath or tray.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak in a busy bathroom.

What new build mastic looks like in East End
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.

When to call us in East End
Baths and trays settle under load once the home is lived in. A bath sealed empty drops slightly when filled, straining the joint and can tear.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
Around East End, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- The length of the guarantee
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How long to leave it before use
How the job changes by surface
Bathrooms and en suites
En suite showers are a common source of leaks into the room below. A proper reseal keeps water in the tray.
Kitchens
As a new house dries, worktops and walls shift a little, which opens gaps along the back. A fresh flexible bead closes them.
