How we handle new build mastic in Chale Green
We never seal over a failed new-build bead. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. We work on show homes, plot handovers and skirting & floors, and the jobs we see most are leaking shower tray seals in a new home and cracked caulk along new skirting.
Around Chale Green, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots for a typical job. In a small place like Chale Green, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Move anything stored near the joints

When it isn’t the sealant
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Broken tiles or a split tray
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Common problems we fix in Chale Green
On many sites, sealant goes on in the final rush before handover. Joints are not always cleaned of dust or primed, so the bead never bonds properly.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
Around Chale Green, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Why act early in Chale Green
If you’re 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. Older cottages and farmhouses around Chale Green can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
Keep an eye on the joints over the first couple of years. Hairline gaps can open as timber and plaster dry, and they’re simple to reseal once movement has slowed.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak in a busy bathroom.
New homes and floors in Chale Green
Chale Green is within about 2 miles of the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so it’s worth checking at snagging. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Whether the job is in Chale Green itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
