Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • New-build shower sealant that has already split
  • Cracks appearing as a new home settles
  • Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
  • Frame joints opening as the plaster dries

For new homes near Havant station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

  • What happens if the job turns out different

Choosing a sealant specialist

About our new build mastic in Havant

Across Havant, we work for both new-home owners and the builders handing those homes over. One shower or a whole phase of plots, the method does not change: remove, clean, prime where needed, then a neat new bead. Typical jobs include new-build shower sealant that has already split and smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging, across windows & doors, skirting & floors and plot handovers.

Small business units and shops in a town like Havant have floors that take heavy wear. Threshold and floor joints are best resealed before their edges start breaking away.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

How the job changes by surface

Bathrooms and en suites

Shower trays in new homes often move slightly in the first year. The joint is stripped back before the new bead goes in and baths are filled before sealing.

Plot handovers

Good preparation at handover saves snagging later. We clean out building dust before sealing and prime where the product needs it.

Your questions about new build mastic in Havant

Is new build mastic in Havant guaranteed?

All our work, in Havant and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.

Do you cover Havant for new build mastic?

Yes, Havant is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we’re fully insured.

Will it make a mess?

Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes. More than one area can go on one quote.

What sealant do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.

Do you work for developers?

Yes. We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders and developers. Send us the plot schedule and we will quote.

Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?

White and clear are the most common, but sealant comes in other colours too. We choose one to suit the room.

Leave it or put it right?

If you’re still in the builder’s snagging or warranty period, ask them to put it right first. If it’s slow, or the same joint keeps failing, a proper reseal from a specialist is the next step. Around Havant, failed sealant lets water into hidden places, like the floor under a bath, the back of a panel or the inside of a wall. Left alone, that means rot, damp and a bigger repair.

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Why us?

  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
  • Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet

Honest limits

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before work begins. Sealant will not put right:

  • Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
  • Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
  • Broken tiles or a split tray

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

Joints and finishes in Havant homes

Havant is within about 2 miles of the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so it’s worth checking at snagging. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

Around Havant, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
