Why act early in Fisher

Resealing everything on a snagging list in one visit is usually simpler than chasing joints one at a time. You get one visit and one clear quote to plan around. In a small place like Fisher, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Why book with us

  • Sealant colour chosen to suit
  • We agree the colour with you first
  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
  • Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants

About our new build mastic in Fisher

We never seal over a failed new-build bead. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, so the joint is cut out, cleaned, dried and resealed. We are often asked to deal with smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging and internal frame sealant that has split, on bathrooms & en suites, plot handovers and show homes.

Work in a small place like Fisher just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

New homes and floors in Fisher

Fisher is within about 2 miles 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. Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

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

Keeping the joints in good condition

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Record problems with dated photos
  • Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
  • Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
  • Wipe joints with warm soapy water

Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray while the sealant cures. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.

A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Early resealing keeps the job small and protects the rest of the house.

Can I do it myself?

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, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

When to call us in Fisher

If plaster or screed was still damp when it was sealed, the bond suffers. Site programmes do not always leave time for joints to dry before the sealant goes on.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Skirting joints opening in the first winter
  • Cracks appearing as a new home settles
  • Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
  • Sealant that never bonded to the surface

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

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Common questions in Fisher

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Chichester station?

Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Is Fisher within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?

Report it to the builder first while you are covered. Once that is done, or if they will not put it right, we’ll cut it out and reseal it.

Where are you based?

We work from Crawley. We cover Fisher and the rest of West Sussex, along with the rest of our area.

How long will you be here?

A typical job takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. We will confirm how long when we quote.

Are you insured?

Yes, we’re fully insured for every job we do.

Can I do it myself?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

The process

We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. The job generally takes a few hours in a single home. For a village or hamlet like Fisher, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. Each joint is checked for movement before we start.
  2. We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
  3. We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
  4. Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
  5. The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
