New build mastic in Rodmersham Green, done properly

We work in new homes and on new-build sites across Rodmersham Green. Whether it’s one en suite or a run of plots, the method is the same: cut out, clean, prime where needed and reseal neatly. We are often asked to deal with gaps behind new kitchen upstands and smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging, across skirting & floors, show homes and kitchens.

Somewhere as small as Rodmersham Green, 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.

A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What the job involves on each surface

Windows and doors

Internal joints between frames and plaster often crack as a new house dries. We remove cracked sealant and apply a flexible one that suits the frame.

Show homes

Tired or marked sealant in a show home can be renewed. We cut it out and reseal neatly.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Signs you need new build mastic in Rodmersham Green

Baths and trays settle under load once the home is lived in. A bath sealed empty drops slightly when filled, straining the joint.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • New-build shower sealant that has already split
  • Cracked caulk along new skirting
  • Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
  • Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles

For new homes near Sittingbourne station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

FAQs for Rodmersham Green

Is Rodmersham Green within the area you cover?

Yes. Rodmersham Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Sittingbourne station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.

What colour sealant will you use?

We use white, clear or a colour to suit the finishes. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.

Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?

Any seal that is leaking should be redone straight away. For small cosmetic gaps, waiting until the house has settled can save doing them twice.

Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?

No. The old sealant is cut out fully, then clean and prime the joint, and a new bead applied.

Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?

There are normally two causes: the house moving as it dries, and sealant that never bonded properly. Cutting it out and resealing properly fixes both.

How long before the joint can be used?

Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.

Do you work through snagging lists?

Yes. Send the list and a few pictures of the sealant items, and we’ll quote. We will flag anything that needs another trade.

Why it’s worth doing now in Rodmersham Green

Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. Around Rodmersham Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
