New build mastic in Littleton, done properly

Across Littleton, we work for both new-home owners and the builders handing those homes over. One shower or a whole phase of plots, the method doesn’t change: remove, clean, prime where needed, then a neat new bead. If you have internal frame sealant that has split and new-build shower sealant that has already split, we can help, on kitchens, plot handovers and skirting & floors alike.

Somewhere as small as Littleton, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

When to call us in Littleton

Baths and trays settle under load once the home is lived in. If a bath wasn’t filled when it was sealed, the bead is stretched the first time it’s used and the sealant may split.

Common reasons people contact us are:

  • Sealant that never bonded to the surface
  • Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
  • Cracked caulk along new skirting
  • Shower seals failing in the first year or two

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

Surface by surface

Windows and doors

A draught at a new window can be a missed or failed joint. We look at the joints and reseal where needed.

Kitchens

Worktops in new homes can move slightly as the house dries, which opens gaps along the back. We reseal them with a flexible sealant.

Littleton: your questions answered

I let a flat near Winchester station. Can you help?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Do you cover Littleton for new build mastic?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Littleton is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.

How long does the job take?

Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.

Which products do you use?

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

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.

Is it normal for sealant to crack in a new home?

Cracking in the first couple of years is common. Poor preparation at handover adds to it.

How to look after the new joints

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
  • Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
  • Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
  • Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured

Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents as they wear the bead.

Report failed sealant to the builder while you are in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you.

Can I do it myself?

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

How the visit works

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours in a single home. For a village or hamlet like Littleton, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

Why act early in Littleton

If you are still in the builder’s snagging or warranty period, ask them to put it right first. If it keeps failing or is not dealt with, we can reseal it properly. Older cottages and farmhouses around Littleton can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.
