New build mastic in Hale Street, done properly
We never seal over a failed new-build bead. Fresh silicone cannot bond to the old layer, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. We work on windows & doors, show homes and kitchens, and the jobs we see most are second-fix sealing on new plots and cracks appearing as a new home settles.
For a small place like Hale Street, the journey and access are planned in advance, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

What we are called out for in Hale Street
Once people move in, baths and trays take weight and bed down. If a bath wasn’t filled when it was sealed, the bead is stretched the first time it’s used and the sealant may split.
The problems people generally mention when they call include:
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
Around Hale Street, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

The process
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere as small as Hale Street, 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.
- Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

FAQs for Hale Street
Do you cover smaller places like Hale Street?
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 cover Hale Street for new build mastic?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Hale Street is part of that. Just phone 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 work for hotels and businesses?

Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
There are normally two causes: movement as the house dries and settles, and sealant laid onto dust without primer. A proper reseal deals with both.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Do you work through snagging lists?
Yes. Send us the sealant items on the list, with pictures if you can and we’ll give you a quote. We will flag anything that needs another trade.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will tell you what we’re using.
What the job involves on each surface
Show homes
Tired or marked sealant in a show home can be renewed. The old bead comes out and a clean new one goes in.
Kitchens
Beside the sink, the joint takes water every day. A kitchen sealant goes in there.
Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
- Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Follow the cure time we give you
Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Resealing before mould gets in keeps the job straightforward.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.
Why act early in Hale Street
Resealing everything on a snagging list in one visit is normally simpler than chasing joints one at a time. It’s one visit, one quote and one set of cure times. Around Hale Street, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start.
