About our new build mastic in Gay Bowers
A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water gets into the floor or walls. If you are dealing with gaps between new skirting and floors and plot mastic for developers ahead of handover, we can help, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Gay Bowers, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

Why it’s worth doing now in Gay Bowers
Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Dealing with it early keeps the damage away from ceilings, floors and finishes. In a small place like Gay Bowers, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.
Why us?
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Arbo and Everbuild products
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
- We never seal over old sealant
How the job changes by surface
Show homes
Bathrooms, kitchens and frames in show homes are sealed or resealed to a neat finish. We will plan around viewing times.
Kitchens
As a new house dries, worktops and walls shift a little, which opens gaps along the back. A fresh flexible bead closes them.
Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

What else we do in Gay Bowers
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
- Don’t wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
Ventilation matters in a new home, which is still drying out. Run the fan or open a window after bathing to help keep mould away.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Resealing before mould gets in keeps the job straightforward.
