- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
What the job involves on each surface
Kitchens
As a new house dries, worktops and walls shift a little, which opens gaps along the back. We reseal them with a flexible sealant.
Skirting and floors
New homes often develop a gap between skirting and floor. A flexible sealant closes it without cracking like caulk.
New build mastic in Round Bush, done properly
In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water reaches anything behind it. We work on kitchens, skirting & floors and plot handovers, and the jobs we see most are sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces and new-build shower sealant that has already split.
Around Round Bush, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
- Keep photos and emails about snagging items
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
Keep pictures of the joints and any snagging correspondence with your builder. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you’re in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you so report it promptly.
Do you need new build mastic in Round Bush?
Fresh sealant can be knocked or cut by trades finishing off. If it’s disturbed before curing, the joint can be left weak.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
Around Round Bush, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Why it’s worth doing now in Round Bush
It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. It’s one visit, one quote and one set of cure times. Older cottages and farmhouses around Round Bush can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
