How we handle new build mastic in Trottiscliffe
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover with a sealant suited to each area. If you are dealing with cracked sealant around new window and door frames and gaps opening as the house dries out and settles, we can put it right, on skirting & floors, windows & doors and show homes alike.
Somewhere as small as Trottiscliffe, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Do not seal over failed sealant yourself
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Silicone is normally left for about a day.
If a shower tray or bath seal splits in the first year, look for movement. Getting it resealed properly, and any movement checked, stops it recurring.
What we are called out for in Trottiscliffe
Sealant is often one of the last jobs before handover. Dusty, unprimed joints are common, so the bead never bonds properly.
People usually contact us after spotting something like this:
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
Around Trottiscliffe, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Leave it or put it right?
For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Every return visit for a failed seal takes time, and they’re avoidable with good preparation. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Trottiscliffe, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
