New build mastic in Chineham
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the new bead bonds properly instead of bonding to the dust. If you’re dealing with joints pulling apart as timber shrinks and worktop and upstand sealant coming away, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In smaller places like Chineham, new homes tend to come as small developments or single plots. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly from day one.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

When something else is needed
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Windows & doors

- Skirting & floors

Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
Keep the bathroom ventilated, especially in the first year. Run the fan or open a window after bathing so moisture does not sit on the sealant.
A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Early resealing keeps the job small.
What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Parking around Chineham is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The failed sealant is removed completely.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
Getting ready for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

When to call us in Chineham
Once people move in, baths and trays take weight and bed down. If a bath wasn’t filled when it was sealed, the bead is stretched the first time it’s used and can tear.
People generally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
For new homes near Basingstoke station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Which colour the sealant will be
- What the cure time is
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first

Chineham: your questions answered
Is Chineham within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Basingstoke station. Can you help?

Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?
We use white, clear or a colour to suit the finishes. Tell us what you’d like when you get a quote.
How much does new build mastic cost in Chineham?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.
How long should I leave it?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Can you do plot mastic on a new development?
Yes. Second-fix sealing in bathrooms, kitchens, frames and floors is part of what we do. Good preparation keeps snagging to a minimum.
How we quote for new build mastic
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How many areas need sealing
- The size of the job
- Any working-time requirements on site

What to tell us for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- How we’d reach the joints
- The address or postcode of the job
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- If someone has resealed it before
We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Chineham
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.
Letting agents and landlords in Chineham can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
