The process
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. In a small place like Claygate, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
- Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
- We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
- New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
- We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice
About our new build mastic in Claygate
Some owners wait for the first year’s movement before having joints redone. That makes sense for small gaps that are just cosmetic, but a seal that is letting water through needs doing now. If you have worktop and upstand sealant coming away and frame joints opening as the plaster dries, we can put it right.
In a village or hamlet like Claygate, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
Don’t stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray. Report any movement in a bath or tray.
Leave a failed new-build seal and water can reach the floor and the ceiling below. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant.

What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
- A tray or bath that is not properly supported, until it’s fixed
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Why deal with it now?
Small cosmetic gaps can wait for the house to settle, but a leaking seal cannot. If you’re unsure which you have, call 0345 464 0079 or email us with photos and we will give you a straight answer. Older cottages and farmhouses around Claygate can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
