New build mastic for homes and businesses in Sudbury Hill
New homes move as they dry out. Timber shrinks, plaster dries and baths and trays bed down, and sealant applied in a hurry at handover can split. We’re often asked to deal with messy sealant that spoils new finishes and beads laid onto grit and dust from the build, across windows & doors, plot handovers and skirting & floors.
New flats are going up across London, many of them in larger developments. Snagging there often goes through the developer or managing agent, and shower seals that fail early, skirting joints that open up and gaps at thresholds are all common snags.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Sudbury Hill and everywhere else we cover.

Common problems we fix in Sudbury Hill
When the heating goes on in the first winter, the house dries fast. Gaps open along skirting, frames and worktops and cracked sealant shows up.
People generally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
Sudbury Hill is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- When the joint can take water or movement
For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
Do not stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray while the sealant cures. Report any movement in a bath or tray.
A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Have it resealed, and the tray or bath checked, before it gets worse.
Leave it or put it right?
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but water getting through can’t. Not sure whether yours can wait? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few photos and we’ll tell you. In a flat in Sudbury Hill, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start.

- More than 20 years in sealant work
- 12-month guarantee on every job

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- The type of sealant required
- Whether the work is at height

Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:

New build mastic around Sudbury Hill

If you’ve bought a new home near Sudbury & Harrow Road station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Is parking an issue for new build mastic in Sudbury Hill?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot.
Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you take on second-fix sealing for builders?
Yes. Second-fix sealing in bathrooms, kitchens, frames and floors is part of what we do. Good preparation keeps snagging to a minimum.
Can you work from my snagging list?
Yes. Send us the sealant items on the list, with pictures if you can. We’ll tell you if anything on it is not a sealant job.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to the old layer, so it soon lifts and traps water. The old sealant always comes out first.
Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?
Report it to the builder first while you are covered. If it isn’t resolved, we can reseal it properly.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots for a typical job. In Sudbury Hill, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out down to clean surfaces.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
