New-build mastic & snagging in Boundstone, Surrey
New-build sealant joints in Boundstone need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant.
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. It usually takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Parking around Boundstone is generally 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.
- 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.
- We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear the area around the work
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

How we handle new build mastic in Boundstone
Building dust is behind a lot of failed new-build sealant. Each joint is cleaned of dust and primed where the product calls for it, so the new bead bonds properly rather than sitting on a layer of grit. We work on bathrooms & en suites, plot handovers and kitchens, and common reasons people get in touch are messy sealant that spoils new finishes and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks.
In smaller places like Boundstone, new homes tend to come as small developments or single plots. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly from day one.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Boundstone: your questions answered
Is Boundstone in your area for new build mastic?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Boundstone is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Do you work for landlords with property near Farnham station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?
That depends on the joint. Failed seals in wet areas need doing now, while small cosmetic gaps can wait a while.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
What does new build mastic cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.
Will you just run a new bead over the existing one?
No. Fresh silicone does not stick to the old layer, so it soon lifts and traps water. We cut the old bead out completely.
Signs you need new build mastic in Boundstone
The first winter with the heating on dries a new home quickly. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly and cracked sealant shows up.
People generally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
Around Boundstone, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before work begins. It will not solve:
- Broken tiles or a split tray
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.

How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple:
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Do not seal over failed sealant yourself
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents, which can damage the surface.
The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak in a busy bathroom.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
