New build mastic in Tye Green
Some new-home owners let the house settle before resealing. For small cosmetic gaps, that is reasonable, but a failed shower or bath seal shouldn’t wait. If you’re dealing with gaps behind new kitchen upstands and cracked sealant around new window and door frames, we can help, whatever the surface.
Older homes in small places like Tye Green 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 Tye Green and across Essex.

We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours in a single home, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In a small place like Tye Green, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- The failed sealant is removed completely.
- 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
- Mention any tricky access

Your questions about new build mastic in Tye Green
Can you do new build mastic in Tye Green?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Tye Green is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Will you come out to Tye Green?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can I send you my snagging list?
Yes. Snagging lists are a common starting point for us. We will go through the sealant items and agree what we will do.
Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
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 the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll tell you what we are using.
How much does new build mastic cost in Tye Green?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.
Why deal with it now?
It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. You get one visit and one clear quote. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Tye Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Different surfaces, different methods
Show homes
Bathrooms, kitchens and frames in show homes are sealed or resealed to a neat finish ready for viewings. Tell us when the home is open so we can plan around it.
Bathrooms and en suites
New-build bathrooms and en suites are where sealant fails most often. The old sealant comes out and anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in after cleaning and priming.
