New build mastic for homes and businesses in Great Warley
If your new home has a leaking shower seal, open skirting joints or untidy sealant, we can help. If you’re still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, tell them first. If you are dealing with second-fix sealing on new plots and internal frame sealant that has split, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Great Warley, 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.

What we do, step by step
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere like Great Warley needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out down to clean surfaces.
- We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
- We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
- We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
What affects the quote in Great Warley
You will get a clear quote before any work starts. It takes into account:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The number and length of the joints
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How easy the joints are to reach
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The type of property
- Where the property is
- Roughly how big the job is
There’s no standard price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
How the job changes by surface
Windows and doors
Draughts around new frames are often a sealant gap. We check and reseal the frame edges.
Bathrooms and en suites
Baths, showers, basins and trays in new bathrooms are the most common new-build reseal. We cut out the failed bead, clean and prime, and reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Broken tiles or a split tray
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
- Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Skirting & floors
- Plot handovers
- Bathrooms & en suites
- Kitchens
- Show homes
- Windows & doors
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Follow the cure time we give you
- Get a leaking seal dealt with straight away
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It helps if anything else comes up during the warranty period.
A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Early resealing keeps the job small and protects the rest of the house.

Your questions about new build mastic in Great Warley
Is Great Warley within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Brentwood station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.

Do you take on second-fix sealing for builders?
Yes. We work through plots to your schedule ready for handover. Get in touch with the number of plots and the scope and we will quote.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
A new house dries and settles for a year or two, and sealant is often applied quickly onto dusty surfaces. Both lead to early failure.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses.
Should I go to my builder first?
Start with your builder while their snagging or warranty period runs. If that does not work out, we’re happy to quote and our work is guaranteed for a year.
