- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
How we handle new build mastic in Stanford in the Vale
Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. In both, preparation makes the difference. If you have untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list and second-fix sealing on new plots, we can help.
If you’ve bought a new home in or near Stanford in the Vale, the first year or two is a good time to check the sealant. Common snags include open skirting joints, lifting shower seals and gaps around frames.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
When something else is needed
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before booking.

How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours in a single home. In a smaller place like Stanford in the Vale, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. 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 down to clean surfaces.
- 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
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Why deal with it now?
A tube of sealant from the DIY shop won’t fix the cause: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. In a smaller place like Stanford in the Vale, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants

Different surfaces, different methods
Bathrooms and en suites
En suite seals are easy to miss on a snagging list until they leak. A proper reseal keeps water in the tray.
Skirting and floors
Floors and skirting move as the house dries and the heating runs. Caulk cracks; a flexible sealant moves with it in a colour to suit.
Signs you need new build mastic in Stanford in the Vale
The first winter with the heating on dries a new home quickly. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly and cracked sealant shows up.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
Around Stanford in the Vale, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
What your quote should include
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How much experience the applicator has
- What insurance they hold
- How long to leave it before use
