How we handle new build mastic in Oxted
If your new home has a leaking shower seal, open skirting joints or untidy sealant, we can help. If you are still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, tell them first and if that stalls, we can do it. If you have kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall and frame joints opening as the plaster dries, we can help, whatever the surface.
In smaller places like Oxted, new homes tend to come as small developments or single plots. The sealant around baths, showers, frames and skirtings needs to be right from the start.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
For landlords and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
What new build mastic looks like in Oxted
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you’ve bought a new home near Hurst Green station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Common problems we fix in Oxted
When the heating goes on in the first winter, the house dries fast. Gaps open along skirting, frames and worktops.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
Around Oxted, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Questions from Oxted
Will you come out to Oxted?
Yes, Oxted is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Hurst Green station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
How long does new build mastic take?
Most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
What should I tell you?
Tell us what needs doing and where, plus photos if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.
Should I wait before resealing?
Where water is getting through, do not wait. Small gaps that are just cosmetic can be resealed once movement has slowed.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?
We use white, clear or a colour to suit the finishes. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple:
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents, which can damage the surface.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Dealing with it before it goes black saves a harder job later.
How it works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work starts. Most jobs take a few hours in a single home. Parking around Oxted is usually easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- 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.
- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Advice
Leave it or put it right?
The builder is normally the first port of call while the snagging or warranty period runs. If it keeps failing or is not dealt with, we can reseal it properly. Homes in smaller places like Oxted can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Instead of a standard rate, 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.
