New-build mastic & snagging in West End, Kent
Our applicators work in West End on plot mastic for developers and snagging failed sealant in new homes. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and every job guaranteed for a year.
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
When it is not the sealant
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with

About our new build mastic in West End
Across West End, we work for both new-home owners and the builders handing those homes over. Whether it’s one en suite or a run of plots, the method is the same: remove, clean, prime where needed, then a neat new bead. If you have leaking shower tray seals in a new home and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Work in a small place like West End just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

What we are called out for in West End
If plaster or screed was still damp when it was sealed, the bond suffers. On a busy site, joints aren’t always given time to dry first.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
Around West End, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Before you book anyone

- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Are they insured?

In total, it generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots.

- We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
- New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. In a small place like West End, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.

Joints and finishes in West End homes
West End is close to the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so any gaps are best picked up early. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
For new homes near Chestfield & Swalecliffe station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
