- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
How it works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere as small as Beggar's Bush, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Each joint is checked for movement before any work starts.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

About our new build mastic in Beggar's Bush
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. If you are dealing with skirting joints opening in the first winter and kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Beggar's Bush, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

How we quote for new build mastic
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- How many areas need sealing
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How easy the joints are to reach
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
What we need to know
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Roughly how big the job is
- The problem you’ve noticed
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email photos if that’s easy.

How the job changes by surface
Kitchens
Worktops in new homes can move slightly as the house dries, opening gaps behind the upstand. A fresh flexible bead closes them.
Windows and doors
A draught at a new window can be a missed or failed joint. We check and reseal the frame edges.

What we’re called out for in Beggar's Bush
Once people move in, baths and trays take weight and bed down. If a bath wasn’t filled when it was sealed, the bead is stretched the first time it’s used.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
If you’ve bought a new home near Sunningdale station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Beggar's Bush: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Sunningdale 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.
Is Beggar's Bush within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Can you work from my snagging list?
Yes. Snagging lists are a common starting point for us. We agree the sealant items with you before any work starts.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Do you use white or clear sealant?
That depends on what the joint meets: white or clear for most sanitary joints, colours for worktops, floors and frames. We agree the colour before any work starts.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we are fully insured.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.
When it is not the sealant
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Damaged fittings that need replacing
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
- Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Plot handovers
- Show homes
- Skirting & floors
- Windows & doors
- Bathrooms & en suites
- Kitchens
Leave it or put it right?
Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. Older cottages and farmhouses around Beggar's Bush can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Why us?
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- We are fully insured
