New Build Mastic in Argos Hill
Our applicators work in Argos Hill on plot mastic for developers and snagging failed sealant in new homes. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
Common problems we fix in Argos Hill
Sealant is often one of the last jobs before handover. Dusty, unprimed joints are common, so the bead never bonds properly.
Look out for any of the following:
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
For new homes near Crowborough station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

How we handle new build mastic in Argos Hill
Some new-home owners let the house settle before resealing. That makes sense for small gaps that are just cosmetic, but a seal that’s letting water through needs doing now. We are often asked to deal with skirting joints opening in the first winter and gaps opening as the house dries out and settles, on plot handovers, bathrooms & en suites and windows & doors.
Work in a small place like Argos Hill just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

What new build mastic looks like in Argos Hill
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

What the job involves on each surface
Show homes
In a show home, the sealant is on display. Every bead is neat and coloured to suit the room.
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.
Leave it or put it right?
A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Argos Hill, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

What affects the quote in Argos Hill

Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
What to tell us for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
Getting a quote is simple: let us know what needs doing and where and its rough size. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.
How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it as they wear the bead.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak in a busy bathroom.

How the visit works
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. In a small place like Argos Hill, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- Finally, each room is checked and you are given the cure time.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Move anything stored near the joints
