About our new build mastic in Wandsworth
Failed shower seals, gaps along the skirting and messy beads are common items on a new-home snagging list. If you’re still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, tell them first and if that stalls, we can do it. If you’re dealing with second-fix sealing on new plots and gaps behind new kitchen upstands, we can help, whatever the surface.
From brand-new flats to converted terraces with new flooring, London has every kind of floor. Every joint between floor, skirting and threshold has to cope with some movement, in Wandsworth as anywhere.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Wandsworth and across Greater London.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Don’t wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
Ventilation matters in a new home, which is still drying out. Use the extractor fan or open a window after showers to help keep mould away.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Resealing before mould gets in keeps the job straightforward.

When it isn’t the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
- A tray or bath that isn’t properly supported, until it’s fixed
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Questions from Wandsworth
Can you do new build mastic in Wandsworth?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Wandsworth is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is parking an issue for new build mastic in Wandsworth?
Parking in Wandsworth, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot.
How long should I leave it?
It depends on the product. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we are fully insured.
Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Do you use white or clear sealant?
We use white, clear or a colour to suit the finishes. Tell us what you’d like when you get a quote.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few pictures.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Surface by surface
Plot handovers
Good preparation at handover saves snagging later. We clean out building dust before sealing and primer used where needed.
Windows and doors
On new builds, external frame sealant can be patchy. It’s resealed with an exterior sealant suited to the frame and wall.
Do you need new build mastic in Wandsworth?
The wrong product is sometimes used in the wrong place: decorators’ caulk in a wet area, or a stiff sealant where there’s movement. Both fail early.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
If you’ve bought a new home near Wandsworth Town station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Why deal with it now?
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but a leaking seal cannot. If you’re unsure which you have, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with pictures. 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.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.
