Do you need new build mastic in Tidworth?
When the heating goes on in the first winter, the house dries fast. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly and cracked sealant shows up.
The most common problems we see are:
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
In and around Tidworth, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Before you book anyone
- Are they insured?
- Which colour the sealant will be
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
How we handle new build mastic in Tidworth
Across Tidworth, 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: cut out, clean, prime where needed and reseal neatly. We’re often asked to deal with sealant that never bonded to the surface and gaps between new skirting and floors, across skirting & floors, show homes and kitchens.
Homes around Tidworth 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.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you are covered
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Keep photos and emails about snagging items
Keep pictures of the joints and any snagging correspondence with your builder. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.
A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Have it resealed, and the tray or bath checked, before it gets worse.
When something else is needed
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What else we do in Tidworth
What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. The job usually takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In a smaller place like Tidworth, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Clear the area around the work

What new build mastic looks like in Tidworth
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.
Whether the job is in Tidworth itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
Tidworth is about 8 miles west of Andover, in Hampshire. Wherever you are in the SP9 postcode area, we can carry out new build mastic at your property. Our Hampshire coverage runs to 683 places, and Tidworth is one of them. Our Southampton page covers work nearby, about 25 miles away.

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
What happens if it’s left?
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 a smaller place like Tidworth, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
