About our new build mastic in Sinkhurst Green
Developers send us the plot schedule and we work through it. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover with a sealant suited to each area. We work on skirting & floors, bathrooms & en suites and kitchens, and common reasons people get in touch are joints pulling apart as timber shrinks and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list.
Around Sinkhurst Green, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What else we do in Sinkhurst Green
Common problems we fix in Sinkhurst Green
The wrong product is sometimes used in the wrong place: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Both fail early.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
For new homes near Headcorn station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

How the job changes by surface
Windows and doors
A draught at a new window can be a missed or failed joint. We check and reseal the frame edges.
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.
Leave it or put it right?
DIY kits do not solve the main problems with new-build sealant: grit, unprimed surfaces and old layers underneath. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. Around Sinkhurst 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. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Sinkhurst Green
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
Watch the joints as the house settles. Small gaps can appear as the house dries and can be resealed later.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak.
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. It usually takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. In a small place like Sinkhurst Green, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.
How to prepare
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
