New build mastic in Sibley's Green, done properly
A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water reaches anything behind it. If you’re dealing with internal frame sealant that has split and gaps behind new kitchen upstands, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Older homes in small places like Sibley's Green often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Sibley's Green and everywhere else we cover.

Can you work from my snagging list?

Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchens
New-kitchen sealant is often applied in a rush. We remove it and reseal with a kitchen-suitable sealant.
Plot handovers
We work through plots to your schedule, sealing each room ready for handover. Each joint is cleaned and primed where needed.
What we cannot put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- A tray or bath that isn’t properly supported, until it’s fixed
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Plot handovers
- Bathrooms & en suites
- Windows & doors

How we quote for new build mastic
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Any mould that needs treating
- The product the joint needs
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
What we need to know
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- If someone has resealed it before
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job.
Signs you need new build mastic in Sibley's Green
The wrong product is sometimes used in the wrong place: decorators’ caulk in a wet area, or a stiff sealant where there’s movement. Neither lasts long.
People generally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
If you’ve bought a new home near Stansted Airport station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee
- How hidden problems are handled
- What insurance they hold
- When the joint can take water or movement
Leave it or put it right?
A tube of sealant from the DIY shop will not fix the cause: grit, unprimed surfaces and old layers underneath. Cutting out, cleaning and priming are what make the difference. Around Sibley's Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
