How to look after the new joints

How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use the extractor fan every time you shower
  • Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
  • Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
  • Get a leaking seal dealt with right away

Ventilation matters in a new home, which is still drying out. Use the extractor fan or open a window after showers.

The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Small faults turn into leaks if left.

About our new build mastic in Church Crookham

Building dust is behind a lot of failed new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the new bead bonds properly. We’re often asked to deal with sealant work across a run of new homes and internal frame sealant that has split, across bathrooms & en suites, plot handovers and windows & doors.

Somewhere as small as Church Crookham, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

The process

When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. Most jobs take a few hours in a single home. Somewhere like Church Crookham 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.

  1. We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
  2. We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
  3. Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
  4. New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
  5. Each area is checked and left with its cure time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice

What happens if it’s left?

Running a new bead over the builder’s sealant might look tidy for a few weeks, but it will not bond to the old layer. Taking it all out and starting again is the only way to get a lasting seal. In a small place like Church Crookham, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

Why us?

  • An ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • Tidy, careful work
  • A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
  • Old sealant always removed completely

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

Do you need new build mastic in Church Crookham?

If plaster or screed was still damp when it was sealed, the bond suffers. Site programmes don’t always leave time for joints to dry before the sealant goes on.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
  • Gaps between new skirting and floors
  • Shower seals failing in the first year or two
  • Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build

For new homes near Fleet station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

What sealant work can’t fix

  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
  • Cracked trays, tiles or worktops

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What the job involves on each surface

Bathrooms and en suites

En suite seals are easy to miss on a snagging list until they leak. A proper reseal keeps water in the tray.

Kitchens

Worktops in new homes can move slightly as the house dries, which opens gaps along the back. A fresh flexible bead closes them.
