Problem with your new-build sealant joints in Farley Hill? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
How we handle new build mastic in Farley Hill
Some owners wait for the first year’s movement before having joints redone. For small cosmetic gaps, that is reasonable, but a failed shower or bath seal shouldn’t wait. If you are dealing with sealant that never bonded to the surface and worktop and upstand sealant coming away, we can help, whatever the surface.
Older homes in small places like Farley Hill often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Why act early in Farley Hill
For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Snagging visits for failed sealant cost time on every plot, and they’re avoidable with good preparation. In a small place like Farley Hill, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- Cracking that points to a structural problem

How the job changes by surface
Show homes

Kitchens
Worktop, upstand and sink joints in new kitchens often get a hurried bead. We take it out and reseal neatly, colour-matched where it shows.
Common questions in Farley Hill
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Wokingham station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover Farley Hill for new build mastic?
Yes, Farley Hill is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes: twelve months. If anything is not right with the work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so sealing over the top fails quickly. The old sealant always comes out first.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured for every job we do.
Can I send you my snagging list?
Yes. Send it with pictures and we will quote for the sealant items. If something isn’t sealant, we will say so.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
What affects the quote in Farley Hill
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- The type of sealant required
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- The type of property
- How we’d reach the joints
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Where the property is
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll explain what’s involved and give you a clear price.

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
Don’t stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray while the sealant cures. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you’re in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you so report it promptly.
