New homes and floors in Northwood
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snagging may go through the developer or managing agent. London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
For new homes near Carpenders Park station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh. Northwood is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

New build mastic in Northwood, done properly
Some owners wait for the first year’s movement before having joints redone. For small cosmetic gaps, that is reasonable, but a failed shower or bath seal shouldn’t wait. Typical jobs include frame joints opening as the plaster dries and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list, across bathrooms & en suites, show homes and kitchens.
Across London, commercial floors have movement joints that break down under heavy foot traffic, while new homes need a neat, sound finish around frames, baths and kitchens before handover.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What happens on the day
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours in a single home in most cases. In a London area like Northwood, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
- Each area is checked and left with its cure time.
Getting ready for the visit

Landlords, agents and businesses in Northwood
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Why act early in Northwood
Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What you get with us
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Old sealant always removed completely
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator

Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
Keep the bathroom ventilated, especially in the first year. Use the extractor fan or open a window after showers.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Small faults turn into leaks if left.
