About our new build mastic in Moreton
Snagging sealant properly means taking the failed bead out completely. Fresh silicone can’t bond to the old layer, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. We work on kitchens, bathrooms & en suites and show homes, and people most often call us about new-build shower sealant that has already split and beads laid onto grit and dust from the build.
Around Moreton, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

How the job changes by surface
Plot handovers
Send us the schedule and any sealant specification for a quote. Sealant work across the plot is covered to the agreed spec.
Skirting and floors
Wet-area floor joints need a flexible seal. They get a flexible, water-resistant sealant.
Should I try it myself first?
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.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

What affects the quote in Moreton
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The size of the job
- Whether the work is at height
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- The type of property
- The address or postcode of the job
- Roughly how big the job is
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
When it isn’t the sealant

- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant

How it works
On the day, we look over the joints with you first. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work usually takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere like Moreton needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Each joint is checked for movement before any work starts.
- Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
- We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
- New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
- The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?
Start with your builder while their snagging or warranty period runs. If that doesn’t work out, we are happy to quote with our 12-month guarantee.
Is it messy?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Record problems with dated photos
Watch the joints as the house settles. Small gaps can appear as the house dries and can be resealed later.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak in a busy bathroom.
