New build mastic for homes and businesses in Maltman's Hill
Snagging sealant properly means taking the failed bead out completely. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. If you have second-fix sealing on new plots and beads laid onto grit and dust from the build, we can help, on kitchens, plot handovers and windows & doors alike.
Work in a small place like Maltman's Hill just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
Every job is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Other services in Maltman's Hill
Surface by surface
Show homes
In a show home, the sealant is on display. We lay neat, even beads in colours to suit the finishes.
Bathrooms and en suites
Shower trays in new homes often move slightly in the first year. The joint is stripped back before the new bead goes in.
Why deal with it now?
If you’re still in the builder’s snagging or warranty period, ask them to put it right first. If it keeps failing or isn’t dealt with, we can reseal it properly. Around Maltman's Hill, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

Honest limits
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
- Broken tiles or a split tray

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before work begins.

What new build mastic looks like in Maltman's Hill
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

FAQs for Maltman's Hill
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Pluckley station?

Do you cover smaller places like Maltman's Hill?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you do plot mastic on a new development?
Yes. We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders and developers. Send the schedule and any specification and we’ll give you a quote.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. Over-sealing traps mould and water and soon fails. All the old sealant comes out before we start.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?
If you’re still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, report it to them first. If they’re slow or the fix doesn’t last, we can help.
Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?
It’s common, and there are usually two reasons: the house moving as it dries, and sealant that never bonded properly. A proper reseal deals with both.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Record problems with dated pictures
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Silicone is generally left for about a day.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Dealing with it before it goes black keeps the job straightforward.
