About our new build mastic in Church Hougham
In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water reaches anything behind it. If you’re dealing with shower seals failing in the first year or two and cracked caulk along new skirting, we can help, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Church Hougham, 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.
Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

Your questions about new build mastic in Church Hougham
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Dover Priory station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can you do new build mastic in Church Hougham?
Yes, Church Hougham is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
How long does the job take?
Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?
Start with your builder while their snagging or warranty period runs. If that doesn’t work out, we are happy to quote and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Do you use white or clear sealant?
It depends on the joint: white or clear for most sanitary joints, colours for worktops, floors and frames. We agree the colour before work begins.
Why act early in Church Hougham
Resealing everything on a snagging list in one visit is normally simpler than chasing joints one at a time. You get one visit and one clear quote for the lot. Older cottages and farmhouses around Church Hougham can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll talk you through it.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Record problems with dated pictures
- Follow the cure time we give you
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray. Report any movement in a bath or tray.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you are in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you so report it promptly.
