About our new build mastic in Stoneyhills
Failed shower seals, gaps along the skirting and messy beads are common items on a new-home snagging list. If you’re still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, tell them first and if that stalls, we can do it. If you are dealing with gaps behind new kitchen upstands and sealant that never bonded to the surface, we can put it right.
Older homes in small places like Stoneyhills often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

What affects the quote in Stoneyhills
Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Access and height
- How many areas need sealing
- How much there is to do
- Which sealant suits the joint
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email pictures if that is easy.
Honest limits
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.

Do you need new build mastic in Stoneyhills?
On many sites, sealant goes on in the final rush before handover. Joints are not always cleaned of dust or primed, so the bead never bonds properly.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
If you’ve bought a new home near Burnham-On-Crouch station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Follow the cure time we give you
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Keep photos and emails about snagging items
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you are in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you.
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
How the visit works
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. For a village or hamlet like Stoneyhills, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any tricky access
