About our new build mastic in Garrowhill
Building dust is behind a lot of failed new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the sealant actually sticks rather than sitting on a layer of grit. We are often asked to deal with second-fix sealing on new plots and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks, across skirting & floors, windows & doors and show homes.
Work in a place like Garrowhill is planned ahead, journey included. Inside work goes ahead in any weather; outside mastic needs a dry day.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Don’t wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray in the first few weeks. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Small faults turn into leaks if left in a busy bathroom.
