New build mastic in High Roding, done properly
Some owners wait for the first year’s movement before having joints redone. That makes sense for small gaps that are just cosmetic, but a failed shower or bath seal shouldn’t wait. Typical jobs include gaps opening as the house dries out and settles and sealant work across a run of new homes, on windows & doors, skirting & floors and bathrooms & en suites.
For a small place like High Roding, the journey and access are planned in advance, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?
That depends on what the joint meets: white or clear in most bathrooms, and a colour to suit worktops, frames and floors elsewhere. We agree the colour before we start.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint before we leave.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
What happens on the day
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere like High Roding needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- The failed sealant is removed completely down to clean surfaces.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- 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.

How the job changes by surface
Bathrooms and en suites
Trays and baths in new builds settle as they’re used. We reseal once the old bead is fully out with baths filled first.
Kitchens
New-kitchen sealant is often applied in a rush. We remove it and reseal with a kitchen-suitable sealant.
Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it will not bond to the old layer. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. Older cottages and farmhouses around High Roding can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

When it isn’t the sealant
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
