Questions from Goose Hill
Can you do new build mastic in Goose Hill?
Yes, Goose 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.
Do you cover smaller places like Goose Hill?
Yes, we do. 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.
Do you take on second-fix sealing for builders?
Yes. We take on second-fix sealant work across new plots. We clean and prime joints properly to keep callbacks down.
My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?
Start with the builder if you are in the snagging or warranty period. If it is not resolved, we can reseal it properly.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, always. There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
New build mastic in Goose Hill, done properly
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the sealant actually sticks rather than sitting on a layer of grit. Common call-outs are for leaking shower tray seals in a new home and cracks appearing as a new home settles, on skirting & floors, bathrooms & en suites and plot handovers.
In a village or hamlet like Goose Hill, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What new build mastic looks like in Goose Hill
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots from start to finish. Somewhere as small as Goose Hill, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Finally, each room is checked and you are given the cure time.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Honest limits
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.

What the job involves on each surface
Kitchens
Beside the sink, the joint takes water every day. A kitchen sealant goes in there, food-safe where it’s needed.
Windows and doors
A draught at a new window can be a missed or failed joint. We look at the joints and reseal where needed.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Goose Hill
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
If you manage several properties in or around Goose Hill, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and pictures by email help.
Common problems we fix in Goose Hill
Baths and trays settle under load once the home is lived in. If a bath wasn’t filled when it was sealed, the bead is stretched the first time it’s used.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
In and around Goose Hill, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
What to look for in a quote
- Is VAT in the price?
- How long the guarantee is
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
