New build mastic for homes and businesses in Findon Valley

Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. Both get the same care over preparation. If you have skirting joints opening in the first winter and internal frame sealant that has split, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Homes around Findon Valley range from older cottages to newer houses, and their floors range just as widely, from timber that moves with the seasons to tiles laid on concrete. The sealant at skirtings and thresholds has to suit the floor it meets.

A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How we quote for new build mastic

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:

  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • Whether the work is at height
  • How much there is to do
  • How many areas need sealing

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Asking for a quote

To help us quote quickly, let us know:

  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • How we’d reach the joints

Need a quote? Please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the job. We’ll explain what we’d do and give you a clear price before work begins.

What happens on the day

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. It generally takes a few hours in a single home. In a smaller place like Findon Valley, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
  2. The failed sealant is removed completely, with no layer left behind.
  3. We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
  4. We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
  5. We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

How to look after the new joints

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
  • Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
  • Open a window or run the fan after bathing
  • Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop

Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Most silicones need around a day before water reaches them.

Early snagging is easier snagging. Small faults turn into leaks if left.

When something else is needed

To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:

  • Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
  • Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
  • Broken tiles or a split tray

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

Can I do it myself?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

What should I tell you?

A short description and the location. If we need more, we will ask.

How long will you be here?

It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take a few hours in a single home. We will tell you when we quote.

How long should I leave it?

Cure times vary by product and the temperature. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.

Do the sealants smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.

Should I wait before resealing?

Any seal that is leaking should be redone right away. Cosmetic gaps can wait until the first year or two of movement has passed.

Yes, often. Several properties can go on one quote, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will give you a quote.

What we are called out for in Findon Valley

A new house holds a lot of water from the build, which takes a year or two to dry out. As it does, timber shrinks and joints open.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
  • Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
  • Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
  • Worktop and upstand sealant coming away

In and around Findon Valley, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
