Trusted new build mastic in Horsell

How to look after the new joints

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
  • Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
  • Record problems with dated photos
  • Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period

Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It helps if anything else comes up during the warranty period.

The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak in a busy bathroom.

New build mastic in Horsell, done properly

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 with a sealant suited to each area. We work on kitchens, bathrooms & en suites and plot handovers, and the jobs we see most are cracks appearing as a new home settles and messy sealant that spoils new finishes.

For a new home in or near Horsell, it’s worth checking the sealant early. Common snags include open skirting joints, lifting shower seals and gaps around frames.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Quotes for new build mastic in Horsell

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • How much there is to do
  • Whether the work is at height

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What to tell us for a quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • The type of property
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work

Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will come back to you with a quote.

How the job changes by surface

Bathrooms and en suites

En suite showers are a common source of leaks into the room below. A proper reseal keeps water in the tray.

Kitchens

Worktops in new homes can move slightly as the house dries, which opens gaps along the back. A fresh flexible bead closes them.

What happens on the day

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. A visit to Horsell is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
  2. We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
  3. We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
  4. Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
  5. The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Clear the area around the work

Common questions in Horsell

Will you come out to Horsell?

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.

Do you work for landlords with property near Woking station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Will you just run a new bead over the existing one?

No. We always remove the existing bead, the joint cleaned and primed where needed, before resealing.

Does someone need to be in?

We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Are you insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. We can talk about working times when we quote.

How long should I leave it?

That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.

Is it messy?

We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we’re done.

Common problems we fix in Horsell

The wrong product is sometimes used in the wrong place: decorators’ caulk in a wet area, or a stiff sealant where there’s movement. Neither lasts long.

The problems people generally mention when they call include:

  • Internal frame sealant that has split
  • Sealant work across a run of new homes
  • Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
  • Gaps behind new kitchen upstands

Around Horsell, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
