Curbridge questions
Can you do new build mastic in Curbridge?
Yes, Curbridge is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.
Is Curbridge within the area you cover?
Yes. Curbridge is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours in a single home. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Should I wait before resealing?
Any seal that is leaking should be redone right away. For small cosmetic gaps, waiting until the house has settled can save doing them twice.
Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?
While the snagging or warranty period runs, the builder should be your first contact. If it isn’t sorted, or keeps failing, get in touch with us.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need and we will quote it together.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we are using.
New build mastic for homes and businesses in Curbridge
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. Each joint is cleaned of dust and primed where the product calls for it, so the new bead bonds properly. We work on kitchens, windows & doors and show homes, and the jobs we see most are gaps behind new kitchen upstands and second-fix sealing on new plots.
Homes around Curbridge range from older cottages to newer houses, and their floors range just as widely, from timber that moves with the seasons to tiles laid on concrete. Skirting and threshold joints need a sealant that suits the floor.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
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 fails, we can still redo it.
What affects the quote in Curbridge
You’ll get a clear quote before we start. It takes into account:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether the work is at height
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before any work starts.
What we need to know
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- If someone has resealed it before
- Roughly how big the job is
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Silicone is normally left for about a day before water reaches them.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Small faults turn into leaks if left over time.
New homes and floors in Curbridge

For new homes near Botley station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh. Around Curbridge, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Why act early in Curbridge
For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Snagging visits for failed sealant cost time on every plot. In an older home around Curbridge, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
