How we handle new build mastic in Almodington
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 failed shower or bath seal shouldn’t wait. We work on bathrooms & en suites, skirting & floors and windows & doors, and the jobs we see most are frame joints opening as the plaster dries and sealant work across a run of new homes.
Work in a small place like Almodington just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Why deal with it now?
A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it cannot bond to what’s underneath. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Almodington, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
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. We take all of that into account in your quote.

New build mastic around Almodington
Almodington is close to the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so any gaps are best picked up early. London and the South East are among 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 Chichester station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two. Around Almodington, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

What we cannot put right
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How we quote for new build mastic
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether the work is at height

- The amount of work
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The address or postcode of the job
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that’s easy.
How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere like Almodington needs a little journey planning: 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.

How the job changes by surface
Show homes
We seal show-home bathrooms, kitchens and frames to a tidy standard. We will plan around viewing times.
Windows and doors
Internal joints between frames and plaster often crack as a new house dries. We remove cracked sealant and apply a flexible one that suits the frame.
Should I try it myself first?
If you’re 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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
