- The product the joint needs
- How many areas need sealing

- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- The type of property

About our new build mastic in Hangleton
We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders, and snagging reseals for new-home owners. In both, preparation makes the difference. We work on plot handovers, skirting & floors and show homes, and people most often call us about gaps behind new kitchen upstands and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list.
For a small place like Hangleton, the journey and access are planned in advance, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it as they wear the bead.
A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Early resealing keeps the job small and protects the rest of the house.
Surface by surface
Show homes
We seal show-home bathrooms, kitchens and frames ready for viewings. We’ll plan around viewing times.
Bathrooms and en suites
Shower trays in new homes often move slightly in the first year. We reseal once the old bead is fully out and baths are filled before sealing.
Hangleton: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Hangleton?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is Hangleton in your area for new build mastic?
Yes, Hangleton is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you’ll get one quote.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so sealing over the top fails quickly. We cut the old bead out completely.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location. If we need more, we’ll ask.
How long does the job take?
Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, including the preparation. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
What we’re called out for in Hangleton
Baths and trays settle under load once the home is lived in. A bath sealed empty drops slightly when filled, straining the joint and can tear.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
For new homes near Goring-By-Sea station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
Questions to ask before you book
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
How it works
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours in a single home in most cases. In a small place like Hangleton, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- 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.
- Each area is checked and left with its cure time.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can go on one quote, and we are fully insured for the work.
Why deal with it now?
Small cosmetic gaps can wait for the house to settle, but water getting through cannot. If you’re unsure which you have, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with photos and we will tell you. Older cottages and farmhouses around Hangleton can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.
What you get with us
- We never seal over old sealant
- Colour agreed with you before we start
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting

New homes and floors in Hangleton
Hangleton is close to the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so any gaps are best picked up early. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
