Forest Green New Build Mastic
We cover Forest Green for plot mastic for developers and snagging failed sealant in new homes. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and every job guaranteed for a year.
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Keep photos and emails about snagging items
- 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 to cure enough for use.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Small faults turn into leaks if left.
New build mastic in Forest Green
Across Forest Green, we work for both new-home owners and the builders handing those homes over. One shower or a whole phase of plots, the method doesn’t change: remove, clean, prime where needed, then a neat new bead. We work on plot handovers, skirting & floors and kitchens, and people most often call us about beads laid onto grit and dust from the build and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks.
In a village or hamlet like Forest Green, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

How the visit works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating. Expect the work to take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. For a village or hamlet like Forest Green, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out.
- We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Move anything stored near the joints

Advice
What affects the cost of new build mastic
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How much there is to do
- Whether the work is at height
- Any working-time requirements on site
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear price for the lot.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Why it’s worth doing now in Forest Green
Sealant done properly at handover means fewer callbacks. Every return visit for a failed seal takes time. Around Forest Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first.
