New build mastic in North Halling
A new house keeps drying out and settling for its first couple of years. Timber shrinks, plaster dries and baths and trays bed down, so sealant that was laid quickly before handover often cracks. We work on skirting & floors, plot handovers and windows & doors, and the jobs we see most are cracked caulk along new skirting and sealant that never bonded to the surface.
In a village or hamlet like North Halling, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in North Halling and across Medway.

What sealant work can’t fix
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before work begins. It won’t solve:
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Signs you need new build mastic in North Halling
New homes are full of moisture from plaster, screed and concrete, which takes a year or two to dry out. As it does, timber shrinks and joints open and the sealant has to cope with the movement.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
If you’ve bought a new home near Cuxton station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

What we do, step by step
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. In a small place like North Halling, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.
Preparing for the visit

- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Different surfaces, different methods
Bathrooms and en suites
En suite seals are easy to miss on a snagging list until they leak. Resealing properly keeps water where it belongs.
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.
