New build mastic in Tiptree Heath
Failed shower seals, gaps along the skirting and messy beads are common items on a new-home snagging list. If you are still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, tell them first and if that stalls, we can do it. If you’re dealing with sealant work across a run of new homes and kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall, we can help, on skirting & floors, show homes and windows & doors alike.
Older homes in small places like Tiptree Heath often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Tiptree Heath and across Essex.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
Keep an eye on the joints over the first couple of years. Hairline gaps can open as timber and plaster dry.
Don’t let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. Once it ends, the repair may be down to you so report it promptly.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

How we quote for new build mastic
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- How much there is to do
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Any mould that needs treating
- Access and height
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 we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

- The problem you’ve noticed
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Where the property is

What happens on the day
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots in most cases.

- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.

What sealant work cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Broken tiles or a split tray
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Nearby places to Tiptree Heath
Other services in Tiptree Heath
Different surfaces, different methods
Skirting and floors
New homes often develop a gap between skirting and floor. We seal it with a flexible sealant that copes with the movement.
Kitchens
Beside the sink, the joint takes water every day. A kitchen sealant goes in there.
What happens if it’s left?
If you are still in the builder’s snagging or warranty period, ask them to put it right first. If it keeps failing or is not dealt with, we can reseal it properly. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Tiptree Heath, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
