New build mastic in Elmfield
We work in new homes and on new-build sites across Elmfield. Whether it’s one en suite or a run of plots, the method is the same: remove, clean, prime where needed, then a neat new bead. Common call-outs are for joints pulling apart as timber shrinks and sealant that never bonded to the surface, on show homes, plot handovers and skirting & floors.
For a new home in or near Elmfield, it’s worth checking the sealant early. Gaps at skirtings, shower seals pulling away and missing mastic around frames are common snags.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots from start to finish. For a job in Elmfield, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- The failed sealant is removed completely, with no layer left behind.
- 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.
- We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
How the job changes by surface
Show homes
Tired or marked sealant in a show home can be renewed. We cut it out and reseal neatly.
Skirting and floors
Gaps under skirting are one of the most common new-build snags. A flexible sealant closes it without cracking like caulk.
What else we do in Elmfield
Why act early in Elmfield
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but a leaking seal can’t. If you’re unsure which you have, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with pictures and we will give you a straight answer. In an older home around Elmfield, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
What you get with us
- We never seal over old sealant
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
- Colour agreed with you before any work starts

What sealant work can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.

Joints and finishes in Elmfield homes
Elmfield is within about 1 mile of the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so any gaps are best picked up early. 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.
Around Elmfield, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it. If you’ve bought a new home near Ryde St Johns Road station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it.
If a shower tray or bath seal splits in the first year, look for movement. Getting it resealed properly, and any movement checked, stops it recurring.
