Look out for these signs:
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall

New build mastic for homes and businesses in Watermead
A new house keeps drying out and settling for its first couple of years. Timber shrinks, plaster dries and baths and trays bed down, so sealant that was laid quickly before handover often cracks. We work on windows & doors, plot handovers and skirting & floors, and common reasons people get in touch are sealant that never bonded to the surface and gaps behind new kitchen upstands.
In and around Watermead, floors range from older timber boards to tiles and newer finishes, each moving in its own way. Skirting and threshold joints need a sealant that suits the floor.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

What affects the cost of new build mastic
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- How many areas need sealing
- How much there is to do
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The product the joint needs
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.
Asking for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- If someone has resealed it before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Where the property is
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add pictures by email if you can.
Different surfaces, different methods
Plot handovers
Good preparation at handover saves snagging later. We clean out building dust before sealing and prime where the product needs it.
Kitchens
As a new house dries, worktops and walls shift a little, opening gaps behind the upstand. We reseal them with a flexible sealant.
Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it won’t bond to the old layer. Taking it all out and starting again is the only way to get a lasting seal. In an older home around Watermead, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.
When is the best time to reseal in a new build?
That depends on the joint. A leaking shower or bath seal should be redone straight away, but cosmetic gaps can wait for movement to slow.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Record problems with dated pictures
- Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Silicone is usually left for about a day to cure enough for use.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Dealing with it before it goes black saves a harder job later.
