Troy Town New Build Mastic
Plot mastic for developers and snagging failed sealant in new homes for homes and businesses in Troy Town and across Kent. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
What we cannot put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Windows & doors
- Plot handovers
- Show homes
- Bathrooms & en suites
- Kitchens
- Skirting & floors
New build mastic in Troy Town, done properly
A new house keeps drying out and settling for its first couple of years. Timber dries and shrinks, and baths and trays settle, so sealant that was laid quickly before handover often cracks. If you have untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list and plot mastic for developers ahead of handover, we can put it right, on kitchens, plot handovers and show homes alike.
For a small place like Troy Town, the journey and access are planned in advance, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Different surfaces, different methods
Show homes
Tired or marked sealant in a show home can be renewed. The old bead comes out and a clean new one goes in.
Kitchens
As a new house dries, worktops and walls shift a little, which opens gaps along the back. A fresh flexible bead closes them.
What affects the quote in Troy Town
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The product the joint needs
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The number of rooms or windows
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The rough size of the job
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Photos by email, if that is easy
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.
Joints and finishes in Troy Town homes
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.
Around Troy Town, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it. If you’ve bought a new home near Edenbridge station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Near you in Troy Town
Typical jobs here are in homes near The Swan pub and the streets around them. Troy Town’s nearest station is Edenbridge station, about 0.9 miles south-east of the centre.

What happens if it’s left?
A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it can’t bond to what’s underneath. Taking it all out and starting again is the only way to get a lasting seal. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Troy Town, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
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 explain what it covers.

Troy Town: your questions answered
I let a flat near Edenbridge station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Will you come out to Troy Town?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Will you just run a new bead over the existing one?
No. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to the old layer, so sealing over the top fails quickly. We cut the old bead out completely.
Can I send you my snagging list?
Yes. Send it with photos and we will quote for the sealant items. If something is not sealant, we’ll say so.
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. Both lead to early failure.
Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?
Start with the builder if you are in the snagging or warranty period. If it isn’t resolved, we can reseal it properly.
Can you do plot mastic on a new development?
Yes. Second-fix sealing in bathrooms, kitchens, frames and floors is part of what we do. We clean and prime joints properly to keep callbacks down.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Troy Town
Letting agents and landlords in Troy Town can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, depending on the amount of work. For a village or hamlet like Troy Town, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- 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.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention any tricky access
