Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
How we handle new build mastic in Hunny Hill
Snagging sealant properly means taking the failed bead out completely. Fresh silicone can’t bond to the old layer, so the joint is cut out, cleaned, dried and resealed. We work on plot handovers, windows & doors and bathrooms & en suites, and the jobs we see most are smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging and new-build shower sealant that has already split.
Homes around Hunny Hill range from older cottages to newer houses, and their floors range just as widely, from timber that moves with the seasons to tiles laid on concrete. The sealant at skirtings and thresholds has to suit the floor it meets.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Hunny Hill and across the Isle of Wight.

How it works
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can get on with your day. The job generally takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. A visit to Hunny Hill 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.
- We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
- A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
- Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.
Before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us about any water getting in
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Why it’s worth doing now in Hunny Hill
DIY kits don’t solve the main problems with new-build sealant: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. In an older home around Hunny Hill, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.
Why us?
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Tidy, careful work
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
- You choose the colour before work begins

When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
- Damaged fittings that need replacing
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Don’t wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Record problems with dated pictures
Watch the joints as the house settles. Hairline gaps can open as timber and plaster dry, and they’re simple to reseal once movement has slowed.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Resealing before mould gets in saves a harder job later.

Do you work through snagging lists?
Yes. Send us the sealant items on the list, with pictures if you can, and we’ll quote. We’ll tell you if anything on it isn’t a sealant job.

What colour sealant will you use?

What the job involves on each surface
Skirting and floors
New homes often develop a gap between skirting and floor. A flexible sealant closes it without cracking like caulk.
Kitchens
Worktops in new homes can move slightly as the house dries, which opens gaps along the back. We reseal them with a flexible sealant.
