Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?
Cracking in the first couple of years is common. Poor preparation at handover adds to it.

Can tenants book the work?

Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
New build mastic for homes and businesses in Boldre
Developers send us the plot schedule and we work through it. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over using the right product for each joint. If you’re dealing with smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging and internal frame sealant that has split, we can put it right, on plot handovers, windows & doors and show homes alike.
Work in a small place like Boldre just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we have gone.

How we quote for new build mastic
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How much there is to do
- The product the joint needs
- How easy the joints are to reach
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- A few pictures by email, if you can

Different surfaces, different methods
Bathrooms and en suites
Baths, showers, basins and trays in new bathrooms are the most common new-build reseal. We cut out the failed bead, clean and prime, and reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Plot handovers
Taking time over preparation reduces return visits. Dust from the build is removed first and primer used where needed.
For landlords and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. We can quote for more than one property at once.
When to call us in Boldre
The first winter with the heating on dries a new home quickly. Gaps open along skirting, frames and worktops and cracked sealant shows up.
The most common problems we see are:
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
For new homes near Lymington Town station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
Before you book anyone
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Which colour the sealant will be
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you are covered
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Keep photos and emails about snagging items
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents, which can damage the surface.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you’re in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you, so raise it early.
New build mastic around Boldre
Boldre is close to the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so any gaps are best picked up early. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
In and around Boldre, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
