New homes and floors in Well Hill
Much of London’s new housing is flats in larger developments, where snags may need reporting through the developer or the managing agent. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you’ve bought a new home near Knockholt station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours in a single home. In Well Hill, flats, stairs and shared entrances are part of the routine. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
- Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
- We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.
Getting ready for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Advice
Why act early in Well Hill
DIY kits do not solve the main problems with new-build sealant: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Cutting out, cleaning and priming are what make the difference. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and once it shows in Well Hill, the repair is bigger than a sealant job.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
Why book with us
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
- We never seal over old sealant
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- Full insurance on every job

Common problems we fix in Well Hill
On many sites, sealant goes on in the final rush before handover. Joints aren’t always cleaned of dust or primed, and the sealant sits on grit instead of the surface.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
Well Hill is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.
Questions to ask before booking
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Whether VAT is included
- The length of the guarantee
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are

Your questions about new build mastic in Well Hill
Is parking an issue for new build mastic in Well Hill?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Knockholt station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?
For failed seals that let water through, the best time is now. Cosmetic gaps can wait until the first year or two of movement has passed.
How much does new build mastic cost in Well Hill?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
How long before the joint can be used?
Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Should I try it myself first?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Record problems with dated photos
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
Keep an eye on the joints over the first couple of years. Small gaps can appear as the house dries, and they’re simple to reseal once movement has slowed.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Dealing with it before it goes black keeps the job straightforward.
