New build mastic for homes and businesses in Holt End
We never seal over a failed new-build bead. Fresh silicone can’t bond to the old layer, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. Typical jobs include gaps opening as the house dries out and settles and sealant that never bonded to the surface, across bathrooms & en suites, skirting & floors and show homes.
In a village or hamlet like Holt End, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

What we do, step by step
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots in most cases. In a small place like Holt End, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
- Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any tricky access

FAQs for Holt End
Do you cover smaller places like Holt End?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is Holt End in your area for new build mastic?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Holt End is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Should I wait before resealing?
Any seal that’s leaking should be redone straight away. For small cosmetic gaps, waiting until the house has settled can save doing them twice.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few photos.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Can you work from my snagging list?
Yes. Send us the sealant items on the list, with pictures if you can. We’ll flag anything that needs another trade.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can go on one quote, and we’re fully insured for the work.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Leave it or put it right?
Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Holt End, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost depends on the size of the job, 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, so you know where you stand.
What you get with us
- A choice of colours where the product allows

Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
What the job involves on each 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.
Windows and doors
On new builds, external frame sealant can be patchy. It’s resealed with an exterior sealant suited to the frame and wall.
What sealant work cannot fix
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
