New build mastic in Coleman's Hatch, done properly
Building dust is behind a lot of failed new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the sealant actually sticks. If you are dealing with cracked sealant around new window and door frames and plot mastic for developers ahead of handover, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Coleman's Hatch, 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.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

What happens on the day
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours in a single home, and the area is left clean. In a small place like Coleman's Hatch, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Related advice
Should I try it myself first?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

How we quote for new build mastic
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The size of the job
- When we can work, for business premises
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any mould that needs treating
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Where the job is, and your postcode
We do not publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Questions from Coleman's Hatch
Will you come out to Coleman's Hatch?
Yes. Coleman's Hatch is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you do new build mastic in Coleman's Hatch?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Coleman's Hatch is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Will you just run a new bead over the existing one?
No. Over-sealing traps mould and water and soon fails. All the old sealant comes out before work begins.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and the location, with photos by email if possible. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?
If you’re still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, report it to them first. If it is not sorted, or keeps failing, get in touch with us.
Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. We cover Coleman's Hatch and the rest of East Sussex, along with the rest of our area.
Can I send you my snagging list?
Yes. Photos of each sealant item help us quote. Items that need a plumber, tiler or the builder are flagged.
What the job involves on each surface
Show homes
Bathrooms, kitchens and frames in show homes are sealed or resealed to a neat finish to a tidy standard. Tell us when the home is open so we can plan around it.
Plot handovers
Send us the schedule and any sealant specification. Sealant work across the plot is covered to the agreed spec.
What happens if it’s left?
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but water getting through cannot. Not sure whether yours can wait? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few photos and we’ll tell you. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Coleman's Hatch, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
