Leigh Green New Build Mastic
We cover Leigh Green for plot mastic for developers and snagging failed sealant in new homes. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly.
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
Why deal with it now?
Sealant done properly at handover means fewer callbacks. Snagging visits for failed sealant cost time on every plot. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Leigh Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
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 explain what it covers.
Why Leigh Green clients choose us
- Old sealant always removed completely
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
How we handle new build mastic in Leigh Green
A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water gets into the floor or walls. We work on bathrooms & en suites, windows & doors and plot handovers, and people most often call us about smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging and cracks appearing as a new home settles.
Work in a small place like Leigh Green just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

How we quote for new build mastic
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- The address or postcode of the job
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If someone has resealed it before

Signs you need new build mastic in Leigh Green
Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: decorators’ caulk in a wet area, or a stiff sealant where there’s movement. Neither lasts long.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
For new homes near Appledore (Kent) station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
What your quote should include
- How long to leave it before use
- How much experience the applicator has
- How hidden problems are handled
- How the colour is chosen

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Silicone is generally left for about a day before water reaches them.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Resealing before mould gets in keeps the job straightforward.
What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Somewhere like Leigh Green needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Each joint is checked for movement before we start.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
