What happens if it’s left?
Resealing everything on a snagging list in one visit is usually simpler than chasing joints one at a time. You get one visit and one clear quote. Around Catisfield, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

How we handle new build mastic in Catisfield
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. If you have cracked caulk along new skirting and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks, we can help, on bathrooms & en suites, skirting & floors and show homes alike.
In and around Catisfield, floors range from older timber boards to tiles and newer finishes, each moving in its own way. Skirting and threshold joints need a sealant that suits the floor.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Catisfield is within about 2 miles of the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so any gaps are best picked up early. 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.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
What we do, step by step
When we get to you, 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. For a job in Catisfield, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out down to clean surfaces.
- We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
Getting ready for the visit

Advice
Common problems we fix in Catisfield
If plaster or screed was still damp when it was sealed, the bond suffers. Site programmes do not always leave time for joints to dry.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
If you’ve bought a new home near Fareham station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- The length of the guarantee
- When the joint can take water or movement
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
Don’t stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.
A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant and the new finishes intact.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Catisfield questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Fareham station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is Catisfield in your area for new build mastic?
Yes, Catisfield is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Do you work through snagging lists?
Yes. Send us the sealant items on the list, with pictures if you can and we’ll give you a quote. We’ll tell you if anything on it is not a sealant job.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?
That depends on what the joint meets: white or clear in most bathrooms, and a colour to suit worktops, frames and floors elsewhere. We agree the colour before any work starts.
