How we handle new build mastic in South Heath
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover with a sealant suited to each area. We work on plot handovers, skirting & floors and show homes, and people most often call us about sealant work across a run of new homes and worktop and upstand sealant coming away.
Older homes in small places like South Heath 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 South Heath and everywhere else we cover.

How the job changes by surface
Bathrooms and en suites
En suite seals are easy to miss on a snagging list until they leak. Resealing properly keeps water where it belongs.
Skirting and floors
Gaps under skirting are one of the most common new-build snags. We seal it with a flexible sealant that copes with the movement.
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
- Follow the cure time we give you
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it.
The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak in a busy bathroom.

Related advice
Should I try it myself first?
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. All the old material has to come out 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.

Why act early in South Heath
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. In a small place like South Heath, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.
