New build mastic in Little Chart, done properly
Developers send us the plot schedule and we work through it. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over with a sealant suited to each area. Typical jobs include messy sealant that spoils new finishes and new-build shower sealant that has already split, across skirting & floors, kitchens and show homes.
Older homes in small places like Little Chart often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

New build mastic in Little Chart: local notes
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
In and around Little Chart, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
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 fails, we can still redo it.
Questions from Little Chart
Is Little Chart within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you do new build mastic in Little Chart?
Yes, Little Chart is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, always. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months, large or small.
What colour sealant will you use?
That depends on what the joint meets: white or clear for most sanitary joints, colours for worktops, floors and frames. We agree the colour before we start.
Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?
No. Sealing over old sealant looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts. All the old sealant comes out before we start.
Do you work for developers?
Yes. We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders and developers. Send us the plot schedule and we will quote.
My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?
While the snagging or warranty period runs, the builder should be your first contact. If they’re slow or the fix doesn’t last, we can help.
What happens if it’s left?
If you are still in the builder’s snagging or warranty period, ask them to put it right first. If it keeps failing or is not dealt with, we can reseal it properly. In a small place like Little Chart, 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 depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Every job guaranteed for a year

When to call us in Little Chart
A new house holds a lot of water from the build, which takes a year or two to dry out. Drying timber shrinks and pulls joints apart.
People usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
If you’ve bought a new home near Charing station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.
