New build mastic for homes and businesses in Stratfield Saye
Some owners wait for the first year’s movement before having joints redone. That makes sense for small gaps that are just cosmetic, but a seal that’s letting water through needs doing now. We work on plot handovers, bathrooms & en suites and show homes, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps behind new kitchen upstands and sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces.
Work in a small place like Stratfield Saye just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep photos and emails about snagging items
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
Ventilation matters in a new home, which is still drying out. Run the fan or open a window after bathing to help keep mould away.
The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Small faults turn into leaks if left.
The process
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. For a village or hamlet like Stratfield Saye, the journey is planned in advance: 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.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out, with no layer left behind.
- We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
- We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
- We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Can I do it myself?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again.
When to call us in Stratfield Saye
New homes are full of moisture from plaster, screed and concrete, and it dries out over the first couple of years. Drying timber shrinks and pulls joints apart.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
