About our new build mastic in Langley
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over. We work on kitchens, bathrooms & en suites and windows & doors, and the jobs we see most are sealant work across a run of new homes and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks.
In and around Langley, floors range from older timber boards to tiles and newer finishes, from timber that moves with the seasons to tiles laid on concrete. The sealant at skirtings and thresholds has to suit the floor it meets.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we have gone.

Surface by surface
Bathrooms and en suites
Trays and baths in new builds settle as they’re used. The joint is stripped back before the new bead goes in and baths are filled before sealing.
Skirting and floors
As timber and screed dry, skirting and floors shift. Caulk cracks; a flexible sealant moves with it painted or coloured to suit.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
What we are called out for in Langley
Once people move in, baths and trays take weight and bed down. A bath sealed empty drops slightly when filled, straining the joint.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
In and around Langley, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
Why it’s worth doing now in Langley
A tube of sealant from the DIY shop will not fix the cause: grit, unprimed surfaces and old layers underneath. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. In an older home around Langley, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

How the visit works
On the day, we look over the joints with you first. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. For a job in Langley, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
- Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
- The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
How to get a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.

When is the sealant fully cured?
Cure times vary by product and the conditions. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
