New-build mastic & snagging in Egypt, Hampshire
Problem with your new-build sealant joints in Egypt? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, with a 12-month guarantee.
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
Common problems we fix in Egypt
New homes are full of moisture from plaster, screed and concrete, which takes a year or two to dry out. Drying timber shrinks and pulls joints apart and the sealant has to cope with the movement.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
For new homes near Micheldever station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

New build mastic for homes and businesses in Egypt
A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water gets into the floor or walls. If you are dealing with frame joints opening as the plaster dries and shower seals failing in the first year or two, we can help, on show homes, windows & doors and plot handovers alike.
Around Egypt, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Egypt questions
Do you cover Egypt for new build mastic?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Egypt is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Will you come out to Egypt?
Yes, Egypt is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Can I send you my snagging list?
Yes. Send the list and a few photos of the sealant items and we’ll give you a quote. We’ll tell you if anything on it isn’t a sealant job.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
For landlords and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A tray or bath that isn’t properly supported, until it’s fixed
- Broken tiles or a split tray
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

The process
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours in a single home, and the area is left clean. In a small place like Egypt, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The failed sealant is removed completely down to clean surfaces.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
Getting a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.

Why act early in Egypt
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but a leaking seal cannot. If you’re unsure which you have, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with photos. In a small place like Egypt, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.
