New build mastic for homes and businesses in Egerton Forstal
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over using the right product for each joint. Common call-outs are for cracked sealant around new window and door frames and beads laid onto grit and dust from the build, across bathrooms & en suites, windows & doors and skirting & floors.
Around Egerton Forstal, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Most silicones need around a day before water reaches them.
A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Early resealing keeps the job small and protects the rest of the house.
What happens if it’s left?
A tube of sealant from the DIY shop will not fix the cause: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Cutting out, cleaning and priming are what make the difference. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Egerton Forstal, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself usually takes a few hours in a single home, depending on the amount of work. Somewhere like Egerton Forstal needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

What affects the quote in Egerton Forstal

- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The type of sealant required
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The size of the job

What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:

- The rough size of the job
- The address or postcode of the job
- The type of property
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Surface by surface
Skirting and floors
