New build mastic in Tilford Common: local notes
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
For new homes near Farnham station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh. Around Tilford Common, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

New build mastic in Tilford Common
Snagging sealant properly means taking the failed bead out completely. Fresh silicone can’t bond to the old layer, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. We work on skirting & floors, bathrooms & en suites and windows & doors, and people most often call us about smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging and gaps opening as the house dries out and settles.
Work in a small place like Tilford Common just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath

Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
- Get a leaking seal dealt with straight away
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Silicone is normally left for about a day to cure enough for use.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you’re in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you, so raise it early.

Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours in a single home and we leave things clean and tidy. For a village or hamlet like Tilford Common, 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.
- First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
- A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
- Finally, each room is checked and you are given the cure time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice
What affects the quote in Tilford Common
We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- When we can work, for business premises
- The number and length of the joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Any mould that needs treating
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- If someone has resealed it before
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Roughly how big the job is
We do not publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
What happens if it’s left?
Running a new bead over the builder’s sealant might look tidy for a few weeks, but it can’t bond to what’s underneath. Taking it all out and starting again is the only way to get a lasting seal. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Tilford Common, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before work begins.
