- Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
- Broken tiles or a split tray
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before booking.

About our new build mastic in Hindhead
Developers send us the plot schedule and we work through it. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over using the right product for each joint. We work on bathrooms & en suites, show homes and plot handovers, and people most often call us about internal frame sealant that has split and cracked caulk along new skirting.
Older homes in small places like Hindhead often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

How we quote for new build mastic
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved

What happens on the day
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work generally takes a few hours in a single home. In a small place like Hindhead, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Each joint is checked for movement before any work starts.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.

Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
- Get a leaking seal dealt with straight away
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it, which can damage the surface.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you are in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you so report it promptly.

What else we do in Hindhead
DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Surface by surface
Kitchens
New-kitchen sealant is often applied in a rush. We remove it and reseal with a kitchen-suitable sealant.
Skirting and floors
Floors and skirting move as the house dries and the heating runs. Caulk cracks; a flexible sealant moves with it painted or coloured to suit.
FAQs for Hindhead
Will you come out to Hindhead?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you do new build mastic in Hindhead?
Yes, Hindhead is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?
Your builder, if you’re still in their snagging or warranty period. If that does not work out, we are happy to quote with our one-year guarantee.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
Cracking in the first couple of years is common. Rushed application on dusty surfaces makes it worse.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so sealing over the top fails quickly. The old sealant always comes out first.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
