The process
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. It usually takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. For a village or hamlet like Burley Street, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- 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.
- We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
- We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Related advice
New build mastic in Burley Street
Some new-home owners let the house settle before resealing. For small cosmetic gaps, that’s reasonable, but a failed shower or bath seal shouldn’t wait. Common call-outs are for kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list, on kitchens, skirting & floors and show homes.
Older homes in small places like Burley Street often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Do you need new build mastic in Burley Street?
If plaster or screed was still damp when it was sealed, the bond suffers. Site programmes do not always leave time for joints to dry before the sealant goes on.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
In and around Burley Street, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
How we quote for new build mastic
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The size of the job
- Access and height
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The number of rooms or windows
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- How we’d reach the joints
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that’s easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work before giving you a price.
For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.

Do you cover smaller places like Burley Street?

What guarantee comes with new build mastic in Burley Street?
All our work, in Burley Street and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Can I send you my snagging list?
Yes. Send it with pictures and we will quote for the sealant items. Items that need a plumber, tiler or the builder are flagged.
Should I go to my builder first?
Start with your builder while their snagging or warranty period runs. If that does not work out, we are happy to quote with our 12-month guarantee.
Are you fully insured?

Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Follow the cure time we give you
Keep the bathroom ventilated, especially in the first year. Use the extractor fan or open a window after showers.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Dealing with it before it goes black saves a harder job later.
