Why deal with it now?
If you’re still in the builder’s snagging or warranty period, ask them to put it right first. If it keeps failing or is not dealt with, we can reseal it properly. Around Noak Hill, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
Why book with us
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Noak Hill: your questions answered
I let a flat near Harold Wood station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Is Noak Hill in your area for new build mastic?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Noak Hill is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything is not right with the work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
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.
Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?
Cracking in the first couple of years is common. Poor preparation at handover adds to it.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we’re fully insured.
