What new build mastic looks like in Swift's Green
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
In and around Swift's Green, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. For new homes near Headcorn station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

New build mastic for homes and businesses in Swift's Green
We never seal over a failed new-build bead. Fresh silicone can’t bond to the old layer, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. If you are dealing with cracked sealant around new window and door frames and sealant work across a run of new homes, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Swift's Green, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Swift's Green and across Kent.

For landlords and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. It normally takes a few hours in a single home. Somewhere as small as Swift's Green, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
- 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
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Related advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
Do not stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.
A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Have it resealed, and the tray or bath checked, before it gets worse.
Why deal with it now?
A tube of sealant from the DIY shop won’t fix the cause: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Swift's Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why book with us
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- You choose the colour before work begins
What affects the quote in Swift's Green
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- The amount of work
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How many areas need sealing
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- If someone has resealed it before
- The rough size of the job
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
For a quote, call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the location and a short description of the problem. We’ll give you a clear price before any work starts.
When something else is needed
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before you book.

Can I do it myself?
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.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Yes, Swift's Green is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
