What we do, step by step
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours in a single home, depending on how much there is to do. For a village or hamlet like Tisman's Common, 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 start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- Each area is checked and left with its cure time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

About our new build mastic in Tisman's Common
In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water reaches anything behind it. We work on kitchens, show homes and bathrooms & en suites, and people most often call us about untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list and kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall.
Work in a small place like Tisman's Common just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Leave it or put it right?
If you are still in the builder’s snagging or warranty period, ask them to put it right first. If it keeps failing or is not dealt with, we can reseal it properly. Older cottages and farmhouses around Tisman's Common can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.
Why book with us

Tisman's Common questions
Do you cover Tisman's Common for new build mastic?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Tisman's Common is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Is there a guarantee on new build mastic in Tisman's Common?
All our work, in Tisman's Common and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we’re fully insured.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
There are generally two causes: the house moving as it dries, and sealant that never bonded properly. A proper reseal deals with both.
Can you work from my snagging list?
Yes. Snagging lists are a common starting point for us. We agree the sealant items with you before we start.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we’re done.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Common problems we fix in Tisman's Common
If plaster or screed was still damp when it was sealed, the bond suffers. Site programmes do not always leave time for joints to dry before the sealant goes on.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
For jobs in and around Tisman's Common, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.
