New build mastic in Newington Green
Building dust is behind a lot of failed new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the new bead bonds properly rather than sitting on a layer of grit. Typical jobs include joints pulling apart as timber shrinks and second-fix sealing on new plots, across kitchens, show homes and plot handovers.
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments. Snagging there often goes through the developer or managing agent, and failed shower seals, open skirting joints and gaps at thresholds are typical.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

Newington Green questions
Is parking a problem for a job in Newington Green?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly.
I let a flat near Canonbury station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
How long before the joint can be used?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Don’t wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray. Report any movement in a bath or tray.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak.

Joints and finishes in Newington Green homes
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. Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent.
If you’ve bought a new home near Canonbury station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two. Newington Green is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

What happens if it’s left?
DIY kits don’t solve the main problems with new-build sealant: grit, unprimed surfaces and old layers underneath. Cutting out, cleaning and priming are what make the difference. In a flat in Newington Green, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.
Why us?
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Colour picked to suit the job
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- Every job guaranteed for a year

Surface by surface
Plot handovers
Send us the schedule and any sealant specification for a quote. Sealant work across the plot is covered to the agreed spec.
Skirting and floors
Where the floor meets a bath panel or kitchen plinth, the joint keeps mop water out. We seal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.
How it works
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. In Newington Green, flats, stairs and shared entrances are part of the routine. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out, with no layer left behind.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
