New build mastic for homes and businesses in Tower Hill
If your new home has a leaking shower seal, open skirting joints or untidy sealant, we can help. While the builder’s snagging or warranty period runs, report it to them first. Typical jobs include skirting joints opening in the first winter and cracks appearing as a new home settles, across plot handovers, windows & doors and kitchens.
New flats are going up across London, many of them in larger developments. In a new development, snags are often reported through the developer or the managing agent, and shower seals that fail early, skirting joints that open up and gaps at thresholds are all common snags.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Tower Hill questions
I let a flat near London Fenchurch Street station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is parking a problem for a job in Tower Hill?
Parking in Tower Hill, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
Will you just run a new bead over the existing one?
No. We always remove the existing bead, then clean and prime the joint, before resealing.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, always. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.
Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?
A new house dries and settles for a year or two, and sealant is often rushed onto dusty, unprimed surfaces. Either can make it fail early.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Signs you need new build mastic in Tower Hill
Fresh sealant can be knocked or cut by trades finishing off. If it’s disturbed before curing, the joint can be left weak.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- Internal frame sealant that has split
If you’ve bought a new home near London Fenchurch Street station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

What the job involves on each surface
Skirting and floors
Where the floor meets a bath panel or kitchen plinth, the joint keeps mop water out. We seal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.
Show homes
We can refresh show-home sealant that has discoloured or been knocked. We cut it out and reseal neatly.
How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. It normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. For a job in Tower Hill, parking and access are the things to plan: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.
- Each joint is checked for movement before work begins.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- 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.
- We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It helps if anything else comes up during the warranty period.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Dealing with it before it goes black keeps the job straightforward.
When something else is needed
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.
