New build mastic in Foxcotte, done properly
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 with a sealant suited to each area. We work on windows & doors, show homes and plot handovers, and common reasons people get in touch are messy sealant that spoils new finishes and gaps behind new kitchen upstands.
In a village or hamlet like Foxcotte, 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.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
How the job changes by surface
Bathrooms and en suites
Trays and baths in new builds settle as they’re used. The joint is stripped back before the new bead goes in with baths filled first.
Show homes
We can refresh show-home sealant that has discoloured or been knocked. We cut it out and reseal neatly.
Why act early in Foxcotte
If you’re still in the builder’s snagging or warranty period, ask them to put it right first. If it keeps failing or isn’t dealt with, we can reseal it properly. Around Foxcotte, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Do you cover Foxcotte for new build mastic?
Yes, Foxcotte is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Can I send you my snagging list?
Yes. Photos of each sealant item help us quote. If something isn’t sealant, we will say so.
When is the best time to reseal in a new build?
Any seal that’s leaking should be redone right away. Cosmetic gaps can wait until the first year or two of movement has passed.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.

It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we’re done.
The process
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. In a small place like Foxcotte, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

How we quote for new build mastic
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The type of sealant required
- How much there is to do
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- The rough size of the job
- The problem you’ve noticed
- If someone has resealed it before
- How we’d reach the joints

What we’re called out for in Foxcotte
Once people move in, baths and trays take weight and bed down. If a bath wasn’t filled when it was sealed, the bead is stretched the first time it’s used and the sealant may split.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
In and around Foxcotte, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
What your quote should include
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- Whether you can choose the colour
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you are covered
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
Keep pictures of the joints and any snagging correspondence with your builder. It helps if anything else comes up during the warranty period.
The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak.
