New Build Mastic in Iden Green
Our applicators work in Iden Green on plot mastic for developers and snagging failed sealant in new homes. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly.
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
- Internal frame sealant that has split
How we handle new build mastic in Iden Green
We never seal over a failed new-build bead. Fresh silicone cannot bond to the old layer, so the joint is cut out, cleaned, dried and resealed. We are often asked to deal with cracked sealant around new window and door frames and shower seals failing in the first year or two, across plot handovers, show homes and windows & doors.
Around Iden Green, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Why act early in Iden Green
It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. It’s one visit, one quote and one set of cure times to plan around. In a small place like Iden Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.
Why book with us
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild

Common problems we fix in Iden Green
Sealant applied onto damp surfaces doesn’t bond well. Site programmes don’t always leave time for joints to dry before the sealant goes on.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
- Internal frame sealant that has split
For jobs in and around Iden Green, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What the cure time is
What the job involves on each surface
Skirting and floors
As timber and screed dry, skirting and floors shift. Caulk cracks; a flexible sealant moves with it in a colour to suit.
Show homes
In a show home, the sealant is on display. Every bead is neat and coloured to suit the room.
What sealant work can’t fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- Damaged fittings that need replacing
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating. The job generally takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere as small as Iden Green, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The failed sealant is removed completely.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about any water getting in
