New build mastic for homes and businesses in Bramber
Some new-home owners let the house settle before resealing. That makes sense for small gaps that are just cosmetic, but a seal that’s letting water through needs doing now. Common call-outs are for cracked sealant around new window and door frames and sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces, on show homes, kitchens and bathrooms & en suites.
Work in a small place like Bramber 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 one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

What else we do in Bramber
The process
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours in a single home. Somewhere like Bramber needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Each joint is checked for movement before we start.
- Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
- The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

What we cannot put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- Damaged fittings that need replacing
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we are called out for in Bramber
On many sites, sealant goes on in the final rush before handover. Joints aren’t always cleaned of dust or primed, so the bead never bonds properly.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
For new homes near Shoreham-By-Sea station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
What your quote should include
- What insurance they hold
- The length of the guarantee
- How much experience the applicator has
- Is VAT in the price?
What affects the quote in Bramber
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The product the joint needs
- How easy the joints are to reach
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- Roughly how big the job is
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Whether it has been sealed before

DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
For landlords and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents.
A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Have it resealed, and the tray or bath checked, before it gets worse.
