What we’re called out for in Hill Head
When the heating goes on in the first winter, the house dries fast. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
For new homes near Fareham station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

New build mastic in Hill Head, done properly
A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. When the finish is smeared, patchy or already cracking, it’s worth putting right early, before water reaches anything behind it. If you have gaps opening as the house dries out and settles and cracked caulk along new skirting, we can help, on plot handovers, show homes and windows & doors alike.
Work in a small place like Hill Head just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Honest limits
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before we start. Sealant won’t put right:
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before you book.

What the job involves on each surface
Kitchens
New-kitchen sealant is often applied in a rush. We take it out and reseal neatly, colour-matched where it shows.
Bathrooms and en suites
Shower trays in new homes often move slightly in the first year. The joint is stripped back before the new bead goes in and baths are filled before sealing.
How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours in a single home. In a small place like Hill Head, access is normally 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.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Questions from Hill Head
Do you work for landlords with property near Fareham station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Can you do new build mastic in Hill Head?
Yes, Hill Head is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?
Cracking in the first couple of years is common. Rushed application on dusty surfaces makes it worse.
Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Should I go to my builder first?
Start with your builder while their snagging or warranty period runs. After that, or if their repair keeps failing, we can do it and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Leave it or put it right?
The builder is generally the first port of call while the snagging or warranty period runs. If it keeps failing or isn’t dealt with, we can reseal it properly. Around Hill Head, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start.

Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
