Home Farm: your questions answered

Can you do new build mastic in Home Farm?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Home Farm is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Bracknell station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?

Your builder, if you are still in their snagging or warranty period. After that, or if their repair keeps failing, we can do it and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Do you work through snagging lists?

Yes. We often work straight from a snagging list. We agree the sealant items with you before we start.

Where are you based?

Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?

Cracking in the first couple of years is common as timber and plaster dry out. Poor preparation at handover adds to it.

Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?

No. Sealing over old sealant looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts. All the old sealant comes out before any work starts.

How the visit works

You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots for a typical job. In a small place like Home Farm, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
  2. The failed sealant is removed completely.
  3. We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
  4. We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
  5. Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any tricky access
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Keeping the joints in good condition

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:

  • Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
  • Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
  • Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
  • Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives

Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray while the sealant cures. Report any movement in a bath or tray.

A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Early resealing keeps the job small and the new finishes intact.

What we can’t put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Damaged fittings that need replacing
  • Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
  • Cracking that points to a structural problem

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we seal

  • Windows & doors
  • Skirting & floors
  • Bathrooms & en suites
  • Kitchens
  • Plot handovers
  • Show homes

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.

We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Home Farm and across Bracknell Forest. Several sites can go on one quote, and we’re fully insured for the work.

Why act early in Home Farm

DIY kits do not solve the main problems with new-build sealant: grit, unprimed surfaces and old layers underneath. Cutting out, cleaning and priming are what make the difference. Around Home Farm, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What you get with us

  • Domestic, commercial and hotel work
  • Full insurance on every job
  • We leave the area clean and tidy
  • A 12-month guarantee on all work
