About our new build mastic in Enfield Island Village
In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water reaches anything behind it. We are often asked to deal with skirting joints opening in the first winter and sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces, on plot handovers, bathrooms & en suites and show homes.
Shops, offices and commercial units across London have hard-wearing floors with movement joints that need resealing as they wear, and new homes need their plot mastic finished properly before handover, in Enfield Island Village and beyond.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

Enfield Island Village questions
I let a flat near Enfield Lock station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover Enfield Island Village for new build mastic?
Yes, Enfield Island Village is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient.
Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?
A new house dries and settles for a year or two, and sealant is often rushed onto dusty, unprimed surfaces. Both lead to early failure.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
How long does new build mastic take?
Typically it takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.
When to call us in Enfield Island Village
Once people move in, baths and trays take weight and bed down. A bath sealed empty drops slightly when filled, straining the joint and the sealant may split.
The most common problems we see are:
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Internal frame sealant that has split
Enfield Island Village is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

What new build mastic looks like in Enfield Island Village
Many of London’s new homes are flats in bigger developments, where snagging may go through the developer or managing agent. 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.
If you’ve bought a new home near Enfield Lock station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.
