New build mastic for homes and businesses in Russ Hill
Across Russ Hill, we work for both new-home owners and the builders handing those homes over. One shower or a whole phase of plots, the method does not change: remove, clean, prime where needed, then a neat new bead. We work on kitchens, plot handovers and skirting & floors, and people most often call us about gaps opening as the house dries out and settles and sealant that never bonded to the surface.
Work in a small place like Russ Hill just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What the job involves on each surface
Skirting and floors
Gaps under skirting are one of the most common new-build snags. We seal it with a flexible sealant that copes with the movement.
Show homes
Bathrooms, kitchens and frames in show homes are sealed or resealed to a neat finish to a tidy standard. Tell us when the home is open so we can plan around it.

What else we do in Russ Hill
Signs you need new build mastic in Russ Hill
New homes are full of moisture from plaster, screed and concrete, which takes a year or two to dry out. Drying timber shrinks and pulls joints apart, and sealant that cannot keep up splits.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
If you’ve bought a new home near Ifield station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.
Before you book anyone
- Who turns up on the day
- Is VAT in the price?
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- How long the guarantee is
When something else is needed
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
- Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
- A tray or bath that isn’t properly supported, until it’s fixed

Questions from Russ Hill
I let a flat near Ifield station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Russ Hill?
Yes, we do. 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.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. The old sealant is cut out fully, then clean and prime the joint, before resealing.
Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
Cracking in the first couple of years is common as timber and plaster dry out. Rushed application on dusty surfaces makes it worse.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. We can talk about working times when we quote.
When is the best time to reseal in a new build?
Where water is getting through, do not wait. Small gaps that are just cosmetic can be resealed once movement has slowed.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
Landlord and commercial work in Russ Hill
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
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.
Why act early in Russ Hill
A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. Around Russ Hill, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Why us?
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Tidy, careful work

How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours in a single home. For a village or hamlet like Russ Hill, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The failed sealant is removed completely.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us about any water getting in
