New build mastic for homes and businesses in Eight Ash Green
Developers send us the plot schedule and we work through it. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover with a sealant suited to each area. If you’re dealing with messy sealant that spoils new finishes and cracked sealant around new window and door frames, we can help, on kitchens, plot handovers and show homes alike.
Around Eight Ash Green, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Eight Ash Green: your questions answered
Do you cover Eight Ash Green for new build mastic?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Eight Ash Green is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Will you come out to Eight Ash Green?
Yes. Eight Ash Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
How long will you be here?
Typically it takes a few hours in a single home. Bigger jobs take longer.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
When is the best time to reseal in a new build?
That depends on the joint. A leaking shower or bath seal should be redone straight away, while small cosmetic gaps can wait a while.
Is it messy?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
When something else is needed
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Broken tiles or a split tray
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
- Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Follow the cure time we give you
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents as they wear the bead.
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.
