How we handle new build mastic in Brown Candover
We never seal over a failed new-build bead. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. We work on plot handovers, windows & doors and kitchens, and the jobs we see most are cracks appearing as a new home settles and smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging.
In a village or hamlet like Brown Candover, 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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Brown Candover, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Record problems with dated pictures
- Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it as they wear the bead.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Dealing with it before it goes black keeps the job straightforward.
What sealant work can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A tray or bath that isn’t properly supported, until it’s fixed
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before booking.

Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchens
Worktops in new homes can move slightly as the house dries, opening gaps behind the upstand. We reseal them with a flexible sealant.
Bathrooms and en suites
Shower trays in new homes often move slightly in the first year. We reseal once the old bead is fully out.
Why act early in Brown Candover
If you are still in the builder’s snagging or warranty period, ask them to put it right first. If it’s slow, or the same joint keeps failing, a proper reseal from a specialist is the next step. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Brown Candover, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

Brown Candover: your questions answered
I let a flat near Micheldever station. Can you help?

Is Brown Candover within the area you cover?
Yes, Brown Candover is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

How much does new build mastic cost in Brown Candover?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?
For failed seals that let water through, the best time is now. Cosmetic gaps can wait until the first year or two of movement has passed.

Yes. Just list everything you need.
