About our new build mastic in Newington
Failed shower seals, gaps along the skirting and messy beads are common items on a new-home snagging list. While the builder’s snagging or warranty period runs, report it to them first. Typical jobs include plot mastic for developers ahead of handover and leaking shower tray seals in a new home, across kitchens, skirting & floors and show homes.
In and around Newington, floors range from older timber boards to tiles and newer finishes, each moving in its own way. Skirting and threshold joints need a sealant that suits the floor.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Newington and across Kent.

Why it’s worth doing now in Newington
A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it can’t bond to what’s underneath. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. Homes in smaller places like Newington can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What happens on the day
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours in a single home. Parking around Newington is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
- A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
- Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Move anything stored near the joints

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
Watch the joints as the house settles. Small gaps can appear as the house dries and can be resealed later.
Don’t let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. Once it ends, the repair may be down to you, so raise it early.
