What the job involves on each surface

Skirting and floors
Wet-area floor joints need a flexible seal. They get a flexible, water-resistant sealant.
About our new build mastic in Ley Green
In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. When the finish is smeared, patchy or already cracking, it’s worth putting right early, before water gets into the floor or walls. We work on show homes, plot handovers and windows & doors, and people most often call us about skirting joints opening in the first winter and cracked sealant around new window and door frames.
For a small place like Ley Green, the journey and access are planned in advance, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

How it works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Somewhere as small as Ley Green, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know about parking restrictions

What happens if it’s left?
For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Every return visit for a failed seal takes time, and they’re avoidable with good preparation. In a small place like Ley Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before any work starts.

What we’re called out for in Ley Green
Sealant is often one of the last jobs before handover. Dusty, unprimed joints are common, so the bead never bonds properly.
People normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
For new homes near Hitchin station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

Questions from Ley Green
Will you come out to Ley Green?
Yes, Ley Green is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
I let a flat near Hitchin station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?

What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few photos.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
How long will you be here?
Typically it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.
What affects the quote in Ley Green
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- The number and length of the joints
- Any mould that needs treating
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How easy the joints are to reach
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Where the job is, and your postcode

- If someone has resealed it before
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
