About our new build mastic in Bar End
Failed shower seals, gaps along the skirting and messy beads are common items on a new-home snagging list. If you are still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, tell them first and if that stalls, we can do it. Common call-outs are for sealant work across a run of new homes and leaking shower tray seals in a new home, on windows & doors, plot handovers and kitchens.
In a village or hamlet like Bar End, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Questions from Bar End
Do you cover Bar End for new build mastic?
Yes, Bar End is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is Bar End within the area you cover?
Yes, Bar End is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. Sealing over old sealant looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts. We remove every bit of the old bead before resealing.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we will put it right.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. As well as householders, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels across Hampshire.
Can tenants book the work?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Why deal with it now?
It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. It’s one visit, one quote and one set of cure times. Older cottages and farmhouses around Bar End can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Advice
Do you need new build mastic in Bar End?
Baths and trays settle under load once the home is lived in. If a bath wasn’t filled when it was sealed, the bead is stretched the first time it’s used.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
If you’ve bought a new home near Winchester station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.
What your quote should include
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What insurance they hold
- Which colour the sealant will be
- How much experience the applicator has
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
- Record problems with dated photos
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
Watch the joints as the house settles. Hairline gaps can open as timber and plaster dry and can be resealed later.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Small faults turn into leaks if left.
Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you’re 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 does not work out, we can still put it right.
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchens
Sink joints are wet all the time. A kitchen sealant goes in there, food-safe where it’s needed.
Skirting and floors
New homes often develop a gap between skirting and floor. A flexible sealant closes it without cracking like caulk.
