New build mastic for homes and businesses in Finkley Down
New homes move as they dry out. Timber dries and shrinks, and baths and trays settle, and sealant applied in a hurry at handover can split. If you’re dealing with new-build shower sealant that has already split and cracked caulk along new skirting, we can put it right, on plot handovers, show homes and kitchens alike.
In a village or hamlet like Finkley Down, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

Why act early in Finkley Down
Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Dealing with it early keeps the damage away from ceilings, floors and finishes. Around Finkley Down, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

How we quote for new build mastic
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- How many areas need sealing
- The amount of work
- When we can work, for business premises
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- Roughly how big the job is

My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?
If you’re still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, report it to them first. If it isn’t sorted, or keeps failing, get in touch with us.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll explain our choice.

How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. 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.

- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Finally, each room is checked and you are given the cure time.

- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Advice
Should I try it myself first?
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.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
Keep an eye on the joints over the first couple of years. Small gaps can appear as the house dries.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Resealing before mould gets in saves a harder job later.
