How it works

There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours in a single home from start to finish. Somewhere like Wooden Hill needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. First we work through your snagging list or plot schedule with you.
  2. Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
  3. Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
  4. New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
  5. We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Advice

About our new build mastic in Wooden Hill

Some owners wait for the first year’s movement before having joints redone. That makes sense for small gaps that are just cosmetic, but a seal that is letting water through needs doing now. We work on bathrooms & en suites, windows & doors and plot handovers, and the jobs we see most are kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall and gaps between new skirting and floors.

Work in a small place like Wooden Hill just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.

We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re covered after we have gone.

What sealant work can’t fix

Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:

  • Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
  • Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
  • Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty

If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What new build mastic looks like in Wooden Hill

Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind. Wooden Hill is part of Bracknell, one of the post-war new towns. Bracknell has kept growing, with newer neighbourhoods added to the original town. Older homes need their sealant and floor joints renewing, newer ones checking at snagging.

If you’ve bought a new home near Bracknell station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two. Around Wooden Hill, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Should I try it myself first?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Different surfaces, different methods

Show homes

In a show home, the sealant is on display. Every bead is neat and coloured to suit the room.

Skirting and floors

As timber and screed dry, skirting and floors shift. Caulk cracks; a flexible sealant moves with it painted or coloured to suit.

Leave it or put it right?

If you’re still in the builder’s snagging or warranty period, ask them to put it right first. If it keeps failing or isn’t dealt with, we can reseal it properly. In a small place like Wooden Hill, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Looking after it afterwards

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
  • Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
  • Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
  • Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant

Watch the joints as the house settles. Hairline gaps can open as timber and plaster dry, and they’re simple to reseal once movement has slowed.

Early snagging is easier snagging. Small faults turn into leaks if left.

Wooden Hill: your questions answered

Is Wooden Hill in your area for new build mastic?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Wooden Hill is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Bracknell station?

Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Is there any odour?

That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.

Where do you work from?

We work from Crawley. We cover Wooden Hill and the rest of Bracknell Forest.

Do you take on second-fix sealing for builders?

Yes. We work through plots to your schedule. Get in touch with the number of plots and the scope and we’ll quote.

When is the best time to reseal in a new build?

Any seal that is leaking should be redone straight away. For small cosmetic gaps, waiting until the house has settled can save doing them twice.

What colour sealant will you use?

White and clear are the most common, but other colours are available. We choose one to suit the room before we begin.

Are you insured?

Yes. We are fully insured.

For landlords and businesses

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
