New build mastic in Hurtmore
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. Each joint is cleaned of dust and primed where the product calls for it, so the new bead bonds properly rather than sitting on a layer of grit. We’re often asked to deal with plot mastic for developers ahead of handover and messy sealant that spoils new finishes, on windows & doors, plot handovers and skirting & floors.
Older homes in small places like Hurtmore often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Questions from Hurtmore
Will you come out to Hurtmore?
Yes. Hurtmore is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
I let a flat near Godalming station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?
Cracking in the first couple of years is common. Rushed application on dusty surfaces makes it worse.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. Over-sealing traps mould and water and soon fails. All the old sealant comes out before work begins.
How long should I leave it?
Cure times vary by product and the conditions. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
New build mastic around Hurtmore

People generally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
Around Hurtmore, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hurtmore
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Don’t wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
Ventilation matters in a new home, which is still drying out. Run the fan or open a window after bathing so moisture doesn’t sit on the sealant.
If a shower tray or bath seal splits in the first year, look for movement. Have it resealed, and the tray or bath checked, before it gets worse.
How we quote for new build mastic

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
