What happens on the day
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Parking around Willington is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- Each joint is checked for movement before we start.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
- The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

New build mastic in Willington
Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. In both, preparation makes the difference. We work on skirting & floors, show homes and bathrooms & en suites, and the jobs we see most are gaps opening as the house dries out and settles and sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces.
Where new homes go up in smaller places like Willington, it’s often a small development or a single plot. The sealant around baths, showers, frames and skirtings needs to be right from the start.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
What new build mastic looks like in Willington
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you’ve bought a new home near Bearsted station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it, which can damage the surface.
A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Getting it resealed properly, and any movement checked, stops it recurring.
How the job changes by surface
Bathrooms and en suites
New-build bathrooms and en suites are where sealant fails most often. The old sealant comes out and anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in after cleaning and priming.
Show homes
Tired or marked sealant in a show home can be renewed. The old bead comes out and a clean new one goes in.
What happens if it’s left?
Running a new bead over the builder’s sealant might look tidy for a few weeks, but it can’t bond to what’s underneath. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. In an older home around Willington, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.

How we quote for new build mastic
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The size of the job
- Access and height
- Working hours on commercial sites
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- Roughly how big the job is
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- If someone has resealed it before
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you’re ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Common questions in Willington
Will you come out to Willington?
Yes. Willington is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Bearsted station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we’re fully insured.
Do you work for developers?
Yes. We work through plots to your schedule ready for handover. Tell us the plots and the joints involved and we will quote.
Should I go to my builder first?
While the snagging or warranty period runs, the builder should be your first contact. If they’re slow or the fix doesn’t last, we can help.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?
That depends on what the joint meets: white or clear in most bathrooms, and a colour to suit worktops, frames and floors elsewhere. We agree the colour before work begins.
Common problems we fix in Willington
Later trades and the final clean can damage fresh sealant. A bead disturbed before it has cured may never seal properly, and the problem shows up after you move in.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
Around Willington, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
What your quote should include
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Which colour the sealant will be
- Whether they’re fully insured
