New Build Mastic in High Easter
Our applicators work in High Easter on plot mastic for developers and snagging failed sealant in new homes. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
Do not stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak in a busy bathroom.
How we handle new build mastic in High Easter
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 have joints pulling apart as timber shrinks and cracked sealant around new window and door frames, we can put it right, on windows & doors, kitchens and bathrooms & en suites alike.
Somewhere as small as High Easter, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What the job involves on each surface
Kitchens

Windows and doors
Internal joints between frames and plaster often crack as a new house dries. We cut out the cracked bead and reseal with a flexible sealant that suits the frame.

High Easter questions
What guarantee comes with new build mastic in High Easter?
All our work, in High Easter and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you cover High Easter for new build mastic?
Yes, High Easter is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?
If the seal has failed and water is getting in, do it now. Small gaps that are just cosmetic can be resealed once movement has slowed.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?
New homes dry out and move in their first couple of years, and sealant is often applied quickly onto dusty surfaces. Either can make it fail early.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes a few hours in a single home. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Signs you need new build mastic in High Easter
The first winter with the heating on dries a new home quickly. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly and cracked sealant shows up.
Look out for these signs:
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
Around High Easter, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
