When to call us in Plastow Green
If plaster or screed was still damp when it was sealed, the bond suffers. On a busy site, joints are not always given time to dry.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
Around Plastow Green, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

New build mastic in Plastow Green
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the sealant actually sticks instead of bonding to the dust. Typical jobs include new-build shower sealant that has already split and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list, across plot handovers, show homes and kitchens.
For a small place like Plastow Green, the journey and access are planned in advance, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Why act early in Plastow Green
A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. In a small place like Plastow Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you are 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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
