People usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
Around Fernhill, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

New build mastic in Fernhill
If your new home has a leaking shower seal, open skirting joints or untidy sealant, we can help. While the builder’s snagging or warranty period runs, report it to them first, and if it is not put right, get in touch with us. If you’re dealing with plot mastic for developers ahead of handover and cracked caulk along new skirting, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Fernhill, 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.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Why act early in Fernhill
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but a leaking seal can’t. If you’re unsure which you have, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with pictures and we’ll tell you. Older cottages and farmhouses around Fernhill can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
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.
Why us?
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Full insurance on every job
Surface by surface
Skirting and floors
As timber and screed dry, skirting and floors shift. We use a flexible product rather than caulk in a colour to suit.
Bathrooms and en suites
Trays and baths in new builds settle as they’re used. The joint is stripped back before the new bead goes in.

Advice
New build mastic around Fernhill

If you’ve bought a new home near Gatwick Airport station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep photos and emails about snagging items
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.
The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Small faults turn into leaks if left in a busy bathroom.
Questions from Fernhill
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Gatwick Airport station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Will you come out to Fernhill?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?
It’s common, and there are normally two reasons: the house moving as it dries, and sealant that never bonded properly. Cutting it out and resealing properly fixes both.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you work through snagging lists?
Yes. Send it with photos and we will quote for the sealant items. Items that need a plumber, tiler or the builder are flagged.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we are using.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
