New build mastic around Hurlingham
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snagging may go through the developer or managing agent. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
If you’ve bought a new home near Imperial Wharf station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

New build mastic in Hurlingham, done properly
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the sealant actually sticks instead of bonding to the dust. We work on kitchens, bathrooms & en suites and show homes, and the jobs we see most are gaps opening as the house dries out and settles and gaps between new skirting and floors.
New flats are going up across London, many of them in larger developments. In a new development, snags are often reported through the developer or the managing agent, and shower seals that fail early, skirting joints that open up and gaps at thresholds are all common snags.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

FAQs for Hurlingham
Is parking a problem for a job in Hurlingham?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
Is Hurlingham in your area for new build mastic?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Hurlingham is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Tell us what needs doing and where. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Should I go to my builder first?
If you are still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, report it to them first. If it isn’t sorted, or keeps failing, get in touch with us.
Should I wait before resealing?
For failed seals that let water through, the best time is now. For small cosmetic gaps, waiting until the house has settled can save doing them twice.
Can you work from my snagging list?
Yes. Send the list and a few pictures of the sealant items. We’ll tell you if anything on it isn’t a sealant job.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you take on second-fix sealing for builders?
Yes. We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders and developers. Send us the plot schedule and we’ll quote.
How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you are covered
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.
Leave a failed new-build seal and water can reach the floor and the ceiling below. Early resealing keeps the job small.
Do you need new build mastic in Hurlingham?
Later trades and the final clean can damage fresh sealant. If it’s disturbed before curing, the joint can be left weak, and the problem shows up after you move in.
The most common problems we see are:
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
Hurlingham is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

Different surfaces, different methods
Windows and doors
Internal joints between frames and plaster often crack as a new house dries. We remove cracked sealant and apply a flexible one that suits the frame.
Bathrooms and en suites
Trays and baths in new builds settle as they’re used. The joint is stripped back before the new bead goes in and baths are filled before sealing.
What we do, step by step
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Each area is checked and left with its cure time.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
