Why it’s worth doing now in Pevensey
DIY kits do not solve the main problems with new-build sealant: grit, unprimed surfaces and old layers underneath. Cutting out, cleaning and priming are what make the difference. Older cottages and farmhouses around Pevensey can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

How we handle new build mastic in Pevensey
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the sealant actually sticks. We are often asked to deal with plot mastic for developers ahead of handover and cracked caulk along new skirting, on kitchens, windows & doors and plot handovers.
Somewhere as small as Pevensey, 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.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
- Do not seal over failed sealant yourself
Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray while the sealant cures. Report any movement in a bath or tray.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Resealing before mould gets in keeps the job straightforward.
How we quote for new build mastic
We don’t publish a price list. What we look at:
- The size of the job
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number of rooms or windows
- Access and height
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before work begins.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Where the job is, and your postcode
For a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the location and a short description of the problem. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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.
Pevensey questions

No. Sealing over old sealant looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts. We remove every bit of the old bead before resealing.

- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
