About our new build mastic in Foxendown
Across Foxendown, we work for both new-home owners and the builders handing those homes over. Whether it’s one en suite or a run of plots, the method is the same: cut out, clean, prime where needed and reseal neatly. We work on bathrooms & en suites, windows & doors and plot handovers, and the jobs we see most are untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list and second-fix sealing on new plots.
Older homes in small places like Foxendown often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Common questions in Foxendown
Do you work for landlords with property near Sole Street station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Foxendown?
Yes, Foxendown is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
What colour sealant will you use?
It depends on the joint: white or clear in most bathrooms, and a colour to suit worktops, frames and floors elsewhere. We will agree it with you first.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.
Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
It’s common, and there are normally two reasons: movement as the house dries and settles, and sealant laid onto dust without primer. A proper reseal deals with both.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
When something else is needed
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
- Broken tiles or a split tray
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
- Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
- Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents, which can damage the surface.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you are in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you, so raise it early.
How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours in a single home, including the tidy-up. For a village or hamlet like Foxendown, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Finally, each room is checked and you are given the cure time.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. You get one visit and one clear quote. In a small place like Foxendown, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

When to call us in Foxendown
Fresh sealant can be knocked or cut by trades finishing off. A bead disturbed before it has cured may never seal properly and it shows once the home is in use.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
Around Foxendown, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
