New build mastic for Findon homes and businesses

New build mastic in Findon, done properly

For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over using the right product for each joint. If you have shower seals failing in the first year or two and gaps behind new kitchen upstands, we can help, on windows & doors, plot handovers and kitchens alike.

Around Findon, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.

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

When it isn’t the sealant

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
  • Damaged fittings that need replacing
  • Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath

If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Why act early in Findon

It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. It’s one visit, one quote and one set of cure times to plan around. Older cottages and farmhouses around Findon can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first.

Why us?

  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
  • Tidy, careful work
  • 180+ five-star Google reviews
  • You choose the colour before work begins

Aftercare tips

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
  • Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
  • Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
  • Watch for new gaps as the house dries out

Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It helps if anything else comes up during the warranty period.

A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Early resealing keeps the job small and the new finishes intact.

What affects the quote in Findon

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • When we can work, for business premises
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • The number and length of the joints
  • The type of sealant required

Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

What we need to know

You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • Where the job is, and your postcode

Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will come back to you with a quote.

What happens on the day

We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating. The job normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In a small place like Findon, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. Each joint is checked for movement before any work starts.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
  3. We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
  4. New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
  5. We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Landlords, agents and businesses in Findon

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will quote.

When to call us in Findon

Later trades and the final clean can damage fresh sealant. If it’s disturbed before curing, the joint can be left weak.

The problems people usually mention when they call include:

  • Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
  • Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
  • Shower seals failing in the first year or two
  • Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall

If you’ve bought a new home near West Worthing station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

What your quote should include

  • What insurance they hold
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • How the colour is chosen

Common questions in Findon

Will you come out to Findon?

Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Is Findon in your area for new build mastic?

Yes, Findon is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

What should I tell you?

A short description and the location. We will ask anything else we need to know.

Do I have to be there?

We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Do you work for letting agents?

Yes. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do, and we’re fully insured.

Do you use white or clear sealant?

The colour is chosen to suit the tiles, worktop or frame. Tell us what you’d like when you get a quote.

Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?

New homes dry out and move in their first couple of years, and sealant is often rushed onto dusty, unprimed surfaces. Either can make it fail early.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
