New build mastic in Stocker's Head
Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. Both get the same care over preparation, because that is what rushed new-build sealant generally lacks. If you’re dealing with gaps between new skirting and floors and sealant work across a run of new homes, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Stocker's Head, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Stocker's Head
The first winter with the heating on dries a new home quickly. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly and cracked sealant shows up.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
For new homes near Charing station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
Questions to ask before you book
- How much experience the applicator has
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- What insurance they hold
- How the colour is chosen
What happens on the day
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. In a small place like Stocker's Head, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Each joint is checked for movement before work begins.
- Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
- The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Common questions in Stocker's Head
Do you cover smaller places like Stocker's Head?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Charing station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
Is there any odour?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Ventilation helps.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
How much does new build mastic cost in Stocker's Head?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
What affects the quote in Stocker's Head
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Access and height
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number and length of the joints
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Asking for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- The type of property
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add pictures by email if you can.

Different surfaces, different methods
Plot handovers
We work through plots to your schedule, sealing each room ready for handover. Each joint is cleaned and primed where needed to keep callbacks down.
Show homes
Show homes need sealant that looks right from day one. We lay neat, even beads in colours to suit the finishes.
Honest limits
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. It will not solve:
- A tray or bath that isn’t properly supported, until it’s fixed
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Windows & doors
- Skirting & floors
- Kitchens
- Show homes
- Bathrooms & en suites
- Plot handovers
Why deal with it now?
The builder is usually the first port of call while the snagging or warranty period runs. If it keeps failing or isn’t dealt with, we can reseal it properly. In a small place like Stocker's Head, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
- Record problems with dated pictures
Watch the joints as the house settles. Hairline gaps can open as timber and plaster dry.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you are in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you.
