New build mastic for homes and businesses in Priestwood Green
A new house keeps drying out and settling for its first couple of years. Timber dries and shrinks, and baths and trays settle, and sealant applied in a hurry at handover can split. Typical jobs include internal frame sealant that has split and gaps behind new kitchen upstands, across windows & doors, bathrooms & en suites and show homes.
In a village or hamlet like Priestwood Green, 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.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Priestwood Green and across Kent.

DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
- Record problems with dated photos
Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents as they wear the bead.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you are in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you.
What the job involves on each surface
Skirting and floors
New homes often develop a gap between skirting and floor. We seal it with a flexible sealant that copes with the movement.
Plot handovers
Taking time over preparation reduces return visits. We clean out building dust before sealing and prime where the product needs it.

What we are called out for in Priestwood Green
A new house holds a lot of water from the build, and it dries out over the first couple of years. Drying timber shrinks and pulls joints apart, and sealant that cannot keep up splits.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
Around Priestwood Green, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
