New build mastic in Poundsbridge
In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. When the finish is smeared, patchy or already cracking, it’s worth putting right early, before water gets into the floor or walls. Typical jobs include gaps behind new kitchen upstands and cracks appearing as a new home settles, across plot handovers, show homes and windows & doors.
Somewhere as small as Poundsbridge, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Do you need new build mastic in Poundsbridge?
Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Both fail early.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
For new homes near Ashurst Kent station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

Why it’s worth doing now in Poundsbridge
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. Around Poundsbridge, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

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 fails, we can still redo it.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Your questions about new build mastic in Poundsbridge
Can you do new build mastic in Poundsbridge?
Yes, Poundsbridge is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Do you work for landlords with property near Ashurst Kent station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
When is the best time to reseal in a new build?
Any seal that’s leaking should be redone straight away. Cosmetic gaps can wait until the first year or two of movement has passed.
What does new build mastic cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before work begins.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, always. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.
What we do, step by step
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, depending on how much there is to do. Somewhere as small as Poundsbridge, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The failed sealant is removed completely down to clean surfaces.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
