About our new build mastic in Stonebridge
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover. If you have sealant that never bonded to the surface and new-build shower sealant that has already split, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Stonebridge, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Landlord and commercial work in Stonebridge
We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Follow the cure time we give you
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Most silicones need around a day before water reaches them.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak.
FAQs for Stonebridge
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Thorpe Bay station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. 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.
Can you do new build mastic in Stonebridge?

Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
It’s common, and there are generally two reasons: the house moving as it dries, and sealant that never bonded properly. Cutting it out and resealing properly fixes both.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?
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.
How long does new build mastic take?
Most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

What else we do in Stonebridge
How the visit works
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. For a village or hamlet like Stonebridge, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
- We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Leave it or put it right?
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but a leaking seal cannot. If you’re unsure which you have, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with photos. Older cottages and farmhouses around Stonebridge can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What you get with us
- Old sealant always removed completely
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
- One-year guarantee on every job
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
