Surface by surface
Kitchens
New-kitchen sealant is often applied in a rush. We take it out and reseal neatly, colour-matched where it shows.
Bathrooms and en suites
New-build bathrooms and en suites are where sealant fails most often. The old sealant comes out and anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in after cleaning and priming.
New build mastic in Crouch
We work in new homes and on new-build sites across Crouch. One shower or a whole phase of plots, the method doesn’t change: cut out, clean, prime where needed and reseal neatly. We work on show homes, kitchens and plot handovers, and people most often call us about kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall and sealant that never bonded to the surface.
Work in a small place like Crouch just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

New build mastic around Crouch

In and around Crouch, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. If you’ve bought a new home near Selling station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Can you work from my snagging list?

How much does new build mastic cost in Crouch?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.
My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?
Report it to the builder first while you are covered. Once that’s done, or if they won’t put it right, we can reseal it properly.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?
Any seal that’s leaking should be redone right away. For small cosmetic gaps, waiting until the house has settled can save doing them twice.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
The process
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours in a single home. In a small place like Crouch, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out, with no layer left behind.
- 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
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.
Leave a failed new-build seal and water can reach the floor and the ceiling below. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant.
When something else is needed
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
- Damaged fittings that need replacing
- Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

Can I do it myself?
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.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Why deal with it now?
A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Dealing with it early keeps the damage away from ceilings, floors and finishes. Older cottages and farmhouses around Crouch can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
