New build mastic for homes and businesses in Ryarsh
If your new home has a leaking shower seal, open skirting joints or untidy sealant, we can help. While the builder’s snagging or warranty period runs, report it to them first and if that stalls, we can do it. We work on bathrooms & en suites, show homes and plot handovers, and people most often call us about leaking shower tray seals in a new home and messy sealant that spoils new finishes.
In a village or hamlet like Ryarsh, 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.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Ryarsh and everywhere else we cover.

Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Why deal with it now?
A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. Around Ryarsh, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will talk you through it.

Common questions in Ryarsh
Is Ryarsh within the area you cover?
Yes, Ryarsh is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
I let a flat near West Malling station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Can you work from my snagging list?
Yes. Send it with photos and we will quote for the sealant items. Items that need a plumber, tiler or the builder are flagged.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. All our work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it soon lifts and traps water. We cut the old bead out completely.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
How it works
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours in a single home. Somewhere like Ryarsh needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Each joint is checked for movement before any work starts.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
- New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
- We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Advice
What the job involves on each surface
Skirting and floors
Gaps under skirting are one of the most common new-build snags. A flexible sealant closes it without cracking like caulk.
Bathrooms and en suites
Trays and baths in new builds settle as they’re used. The joint is stripped back before the new bead goes in and baths are filled before sealing.

When to call us in Ryarsh
On many sites, sealant goes on in the final rush before handover. Dusty, unprimed joints are common, so the bead never bonds properly.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
For new homes near West Malling station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
Questions to ask before booking
- How long to leave it before use
- What preparation is included
- The length of the guarantee
- Are they insured?
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
- Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.
A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant.
