About our new build mastic in Woodlands
We work in new homes and on new-build sites across Woodlands. One shower or a whole phase of plots, the method does not change: cut out, clean, prime where needed and reseal neatly. If you’re dealing with second-fix sealing on new plots and sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces, we can put it right, on show homes, plot handovers and windows & doors alike.
Work in a small place like Woodlands just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Woodlands and across Kent.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
Watch the joints as the house settles. Hairline gaps can open as timber and plaster dry, and they’re simple to reseal once movement has slowed.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Dealing with it before it goes black saves a harder job later.

Is Woodlands within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
Lots of new homes see sealant crack early as timber and plaster dry out. Rushed application on dusty surfaces makes it worse.
Can I send you my snagging list?
Yes. Photos of each sealant item help us quote. Items that need a plumber, tiler or the builder are flagged.
Why it’s worth doing now in Woodlands
Sealant done properly at handover means fewer callbacks. Snagging visits for failed sealant cost time on every plot and most come down to preparation. In a small place like Woodlands, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.

Common problems we fix in Woodlands
Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Both fail early.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
If you’ve bought a new home near Kemsing station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What the job involves on each surface
Plot handovers
Taking time over preparation reduces return visits. We clean out building dust before sealing and primer used where needed.
Bathrooms and en suites
En suite seals are easy to miss on a snagging list until they leak. Resealing properly keeps water where it belongs.
Landlord and commercial work in Woodlands
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
What happens on the day
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere like Woodlands needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out down to clean surfaces.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
- We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
