Common problems we fix in Old Romney
Baths and trays settle under load once the home is lived in. A bath sealed empty drops slightly when filled, straining the joint and the sealant may split.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
Around Old Romney, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

New build mastic for homes and businesses in Old Romney
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over. We work on bathrooms & en suites, windows & doors and skirting & floors, and common reasons people get in touch are joints pulling apart as timber shrinks and shower seals failing in the first year or two.
Somewhere as small as Old Romney, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Old Romney as everywhere else we work.

Different surfaces, different methods

Kitchens
New-kitchen sealant is often applied in a rush. We remove it and reseal with a kitchen-suitable sealant.

Why it’s worth doing now in Old Romney
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but water getting through cannot. If you’re unsure which you have, call 0345 464 0079 or email us with pictures and we will give you a straight answer. Older cottages and farmhouses around Old Romney can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
Keep pictures of the joints and any snagging correspondence with your builder. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you’re in the snagging period. Once it ends, the repair may be down to you.
