What new build mastic looks like in Adur
Adur is close to the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so it’s worth checking at snagging. 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.
For new homes near Shoreham-By-Sea station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us.

Typical jobs include beads laid onto grit and dust from the build and smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging, on windows & doors, show homes and plot handovers.
For a small place like Adur, the journey and access are planned in advance, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you are covered
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Record problems with dated pictures
Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.
If a shower tray or bath seal splits in the first year, look for movement. Have it resealed, and the tray or bath checked, before it gets worse.

Why act early in Adur
If you are still in the builder’s snagging or warranty period, ask them to put it right first. If it’s slow, or the same joint keeps failing, a proper reseal from a specialist is the next step. In a small place like Adur, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Instead of a standard rate, 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 us?
- We’re fully insured
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- A choice of colours where the product allows

What happens on the day
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. In a small place like Adur, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Each joint is checked for movement before any work starts.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
- Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
- We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

How the job changes by surface
Windows and doors
A draught at a new window can be a missed or failed joint. We check and reseal the frame edges.
Show homes
We seal show-home bathrooms, kitchens and frames ready for viewings. We will plan around viewing times.
Can I do it myself?
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.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right 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.

Signs you need new build mastic in Adur
Baths and trays settle under load once the home is lived in. If a bath wasn’t filled when it was sealed, the bead is stretched the first time it’s used and the sealant may split.
People normally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
In and around Adur, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
