New build mastic for homes and businesses in Risinghurst
Snagging sealant properly means taking the failed bead out completely. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. We work on kitchens, windows & doors and skirting & floors, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked caulk along new skirting and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks.
Where new homes go up in smaller places like Risinghurst, it’s often a small development or a single plot. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly from day one.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

How the job changes by surface
Show homes
Show homes need sealant that looks right from day one. We lay neat, even beads in colours to suit the finishes.
Kitchens
Worktops in new homes can move slightly as the house dries, which opens gaps along the back. A fresh flexible bead closes them.

Common questions in Risinghurst
Will you come out to Risinghurst?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you do new build mastic in Risinghurst?
Yes, Risinghurst is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Will you just run a new bead over the existing one?
No. Sealing over old sealant looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts. We remove every bit of the old bead before resealing.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work in that time, tell us and we will put it right.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you work from my snagging list?
Yes. Send us the sealant items on the list, with pictures if you can. We’ll tell you if anything on it is not a sealant job.
What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few pictures.
What happens if it’s left?
For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Snagging visits for failed sealant cost time on every plot, and they’re avoidable with good preparation. In an older home around Risinghurst, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

- More than 20 years in sealant work
- Rated 4.9 stars on Google

Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Risinghurst, several properties can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll give you a quote.
What we do, step by step
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating. Expect the work to take a few hours in a single home, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Parking around Risinghurst is generally 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, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The failed sealant is removed completely, with no layer left behind.
- We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
- We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention any tricky access
- Clear the area around the work
