Capel Cross New Build Mastic
Professional new build mastic in and around Capel Cross, with every bit of old sealant taken out first.

- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
How we handle new build mastic in Capel Cross
If your new home has a leaking shower seal, open skirting joints or untidy sealant, we can help. While the builder’s snagging or warranty period runs, report it to them first and if that stalls, we can do it. We’re often asked to deal with shower seals failing in the first year or two and sealant work across a run of new homes, on show homes, bathrooms & en suites and kitchens.
Older homes in small places like Capel Cross often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours in a single home for a typical job. For a village or hamlet like Capel Cross, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- The failed sealant is removed completely down to clean surfaces.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Move anything stored near the joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

What new build mastic looks like in Capel Cross
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
In and around Capel Cross, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. For new homes near Marden station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

What affects the quote in Capel Cross
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- Any mould that needs treating
- The amount of work
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Asking for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- The type of property
We quote each job on its own. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and describe the job and send pictures if you have them.
What happens if it’s left?
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. Older cottages and farmhouses around Capel Cross can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Why us?
- Every job guaranteed for a year
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- More than 20 years in sealant work

Common questions in Capel Cross

Can you do new build mastic in Capel Cross?
Yes, Capel Cross is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, wherever you are.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Get a leaking seal dealt with straight away
- Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
- Follow the cure time we give you
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Most silicones need around a day to cure enough for use.
Leave a failed new-build seal and water can reach the floor and the ceiling below. Early resealing keeps the job small and protects the rest of the house.

What we cannot put right
