How we handle new build mastic in Hare Hatch
Across Hare Hatch, we work for both new-home owners and the builders handing those homes over. One shower or a whole phase of plots, the method does not change: remove, clean, prime where needed, then a neat new bead. We are often asked to deal with new-build shower sealant that has already split and worktop and upstand sealant coming away, on show homes, plot handovers and skirting & floors.
In a village or hamlet like Hare Hatch, 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.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Joints and finishes in Hare Hatch homes
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.
In and around Hare Hatch, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. For new homes near Wargrave station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

When it is not the sealant
It helps to know what we can’t do too:

Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Surface by surface
Skirting and floors
Wet-area floor joints need a flexible seal. We seal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.
Windows and doors
Internal joints between frames and plaster often crack as a new house dries. We remove cracked sealant and apply a flexible one.

Questions from Hare Hatch
I let a flat near Wargrave station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Hare Hatch in your area for new build mastic?
Yes, Hare Hatch is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
What colour sealant will you use?
The colour is chosen to suit the tiles, worktop or frame. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Should I wait before resealing?
It depends on whether water is getting through. A leaking shower or bath seal should be redone straight away, while small cosmetic gaps can wait a while.
Can I do it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
What should I tell you?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
What happens if it’s left?
Sealant done properly at handover means fewer callbacks. Snagging visits for failed sealant cost time on every plot. Older cottages and farmhouses around Hare Hatch can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.
