New-build mastic & snagging in Upton, Greater London
New build mastic for Upton, by sealant specialists with 20+ years’ experience. Rated 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews.

What we can’t put right
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal

New build mastic in Upton
We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders, and snagging reseals for new-home owners. In both, preparation makes the difference, because that’s what rushed new-build sealant generally lacks. If you have gaps between new skirting and floors and cracked sealant around new window and door frames, we can put it right, on show homes, bathrooms & en suites and plot handovers alike.
London homes range from new-build flats to period conversions with new floors laid over old boards. Every joint between floor, skirting and threshold has to cope with some movement.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Upton and across Greater London.

What new build mastic looks like in Upton
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent.
For new homes near Bexleyheath station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh. Upton is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
- Keep photos and emails about snagging items
Ventilation matters in a new home, which is still drying out. Run the fan or open a window after bathing so moisture doesn’t sit on the sealant.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Dealing with it before it goes black keeps the job straightforward.
Why it’s worth doing now in Upton
It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. It’s one visit, one quote and one set of cure times to plan around. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will talk you through it.

How the visit works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. The job normally takes a few hours in a single home, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In a London area like Upton, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The failed sealant is removed completely down to clean surfaces.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Do I have to be there?

My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?
Start with the builder if you’re in the snagging or warranty period. If it isn’t resolved, we can reseal it properly.
What should I tell you?
Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
When is the sealant fully cured?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?
New homes dry out and move in their first couple of years, and sealant is often applied quickly onto dusty surfaces. Either can make it fail early.

Yes. We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders and developers. Send the schedule and any specification and we will give you a quote.
