New build mastic in Hundridge: local notes
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

How we handle new build mastic in Hundridge
Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. In both, preparation makes the difference. We work on kitchens, windows & doors and show homes, and common reasons people get in touch are leaking shower tray seals in a new home and beads laid onto grit and dust from the build.
In a village or hamlet like Hundridge, 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 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it, which can damage the surface.
Leave a failed new-build seal and water can reach the floor and the ceiling below. Early resealing keeps the job small and protects the rest of the house.

Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Why act early in Hundridge
DIY kits don’t 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. Older cottages and farmhouses around Hundridge can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
