New build mastic in Radlett, done properly
Building dust is behind a lot of failed new-build sealant. Each joint is cleaned of dust and primed where the product calls for it, so the sealant actually sticks. We work on kitchens, show homes and plot handovers, and people most often call us about gaps between new skirting and floors and beads laid onto grit and dust from the build.
In and around Radlett, floors range from older timber boards to tiles and newer finishes, from timber that moves with the seasons to tiles laid on concrete. Skirting and threshold joints need a sealant that suits the floor.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Surface by surface
Kitchens
Worktop, upstand and sink joints in new kitchens often get a hurried bead. We take it out and reseal neatly, colour-matched where it shows.
Plot handovers
Good preparation at handover saves snagging later. Dust from the build is removed first and prime where the product needs it.
New build mastic around Radlett
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.

When it is not the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder

What happens on the day
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. For a job in Radlett, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The failed sealant is removed completely, with no layer left behind.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

What else we do in Radlett
When to call us in Radlett
Fresh sealant can be knocked or cut by trades finishing off. If it’s disturbed before curing, the joint can be left weak and it shows once the home is in use.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- Internal frame sealant that has split
If you’ve bought a new home near Radlett station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.
Before you book anyone
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Are they insured?
- Whether you can choose the colour
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.
We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
- Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
Watch the joints as the house settles. Small gaps can appear as the house dries.
Leave a failed new-build seal and water can reach the floor and the ceiling below. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant and protects the rest of the house.
