How we handle new build mastic in Thundersley
If your new home has a leaking shower seal, open skirting joints or untidy sealant, we can help. If you’re still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, tell them first and if that stalls, we can do it. If you are dealing with gaps behind new kitchen upstands and skirting joints opening in the first winter, we can help, on plot handovers, bathrooms & en suites and show homes alike.
In a town like Thundersley, skirting and floor joints open up as homes settle and floors move with the seasons. A flexible sealant, rather than rigid filler, keeps those joints closed.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

What the job involves on each surface
Bathrooms and en suites
Baths, showers, basins and trays in new bathrooms are the most common new-build reseal. We cut out the failed bead, clean and prime, and reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Plot handovers
Good preparation at handover saves snagging later. We clean out building dust before sealing and prime where the product needs it.
Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. 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.
Your questions about new build mastic in Thundersley
Can you do new build mastic in Thundersley?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Thundersley is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Rayleigh station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?
While the snagging or warranty period runs, the builder should be your first contact. If it isn’t sorted, or keeps failing, get in touch with us.
Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?
New homes dry out and move in their first couple of years, and sealant is often rushed onto dusty, unprimed surfaces. Either can make it fail early.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, always. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months.
Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?
White and clear are the most common, but other colours are available. We match the colour to the finish before we begin.
How long does new build mastic take?
That depends on the amount of work, but most jobs take a few hours in a single home. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.

How it works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work generally takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Parking in a town like Thundersley is generally straightforward, but tell us if there’s a driveway or any restrictions, and mention if the work is upstairs, in a flat or high on the outside.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The failed sealant is removed completely, with no layer left behind.
- We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Record problems with dated photos
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
- Get a leaking seal dealt with straight away
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Most silicones need around a day.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Resealing before mould gets in saves a harder job later.
When something else is needed
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

What new build mastic looks like in Thundersley
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
For new homes near Rayleigh station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh. Around Thundersley, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Why deal with it now?
DIY kits do not solve the main problems with new-build sealant: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. Draughts from a gap round a frame, damp under a sill or water behind a bath panel all start small, and they’re far easier to fix early.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
