New build mastic for homes and businesses in Privett
Snagging sealant properly means taking the failed bead out completely. Fresh silicone can’t bond to the old layer, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. If you are dealing with second-fix sealing on new plots and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list, we can help, whatever the surface.
Homes around Privett range from older cottages to newer houses, and their floors range just as widely, from timber that moves with the seasons to tiles laid on concrete. Skirting and threshold joints need a sealant that suits the floor.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Why act early in Privett
A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Dealing with it early keeps the damage away from ceilings, floors and finishes. In an older home around Privett, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Privett questions
I let a flat near Portsmouth Harbour station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover Privett for new build mastic?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Privett is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you work through snagging lists?
Yes. Photos of each sealant item help us quote. If something is not sealant, we will say so.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?
Any seal that is leaking should be redone right away. For small cosmetic gaps, waiting until the house has settled can save doing them twice.
Who should fix failed sealant in a new build?
If you are still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, report it to them first. If they’re slow or the fix doesn’t last, we can help.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we are fully insured.
Will you just run a new bead over the existing one?
No. Sealing over old sealant looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts. We remove every bit of the old bead before resealing.
What the job involves on each surface
Show homes
In a show home, the sealant is on display. We lay neat, even beads in colours to suit the finishes.
Skirting and floors
Floors and skirting move as the house dries and the heating runs. We use a flexible product rather than caulk in a colour to suit.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
For anyone letting property in or around Privett, several properties can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and photos by email help.
New build mastic in Privett: local notes
Privett is within about 1 mile 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.
In and around Privett, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. If you’ve bought a new home near Portsmouth Harbour station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.
Privett is about 1 mile south-west of Gosport, in Hampshire. We carry out new build mastic for homes and businesses in Privett, as part of our work across Hampshire. Privett is one of 683 towns and villages in Hampshire where we work for new build mastic.
All of PO12 and PO13 is within our area for new build mastic, from the main roads to the quietest streets. Whether your property is on Bay Road, Gomer Lane and Vectis Road or a nearby road, we can help. If you’re just outside Privett, we cover Alverstoke (1 mile south-east), Clayhall (1 mile south-east), Haslar (2 miles south-east), Portsmouth Point (2 miles east) and Portsea (2 miles east). Within a short drive, we also cover Havant (9 miles north-east), Eastleigh (14 miles north-west), Fareham (4 miles north), Horndean (10 miles north-east), Hedge End (10 miles north-west) and Waterlooville (8 miles north-east).

Privett’s nearest station is Portsmouth Harbour station, roughly 2.3 miles east of the centre. Well-known places in the area include Tricorn Centre (3.1 miles east) and Search (1.5 miles east).

Can I do it myself?
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.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
When something else is needed
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.

What happens on the day
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Parking around Privett is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out, with no layer left behind.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
