How we handle new build mastic in West Langdon
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover using the right product for each joint. We’re often asked to deal with plot mastic for developers ahead of handover and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list, on kitchens, windows & doors and show homes.
Around West Langdon, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Advice
Why act early in West Langdon
Small cosmetic gaps can wait for the house to settle, but water getting through cannot. If you’re unsure which you have, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with pictures. Around West Langdon, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear price before we start.

When it isn’t the sealant
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we are called out for in West Langdon
Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Neither lasts long.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
If you’ve bought a new home near Martin Mill station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
Keep the bathroom ventilated, especially in the first year. Run the fan or open a window after bathing so moisture does not sit on the sealant.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Dealing with it before it goes black keeps the job straightforward.
What affects the cost of new build mastic
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- The number and length of the joints
- The product the joint needs
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How many areas need sealing
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Roughly how big the job is

We quote each job on its own. Simply ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and describe the job.
Surface by surface
Skirting and floors
Where the floor meets a bath panel or kitchen plinth, the joint keeps mop water out. We seal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.
Bathrooms and en suites
New-build bathrooms and en suites are where sealant fails most often. We cut out the failed bead, clean and prime, and reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
