New build mastic for homes and businesses in Titchfield Common
We never seal over a failed new-build bead. Fresh silicone can’t bond to the old layer, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. We work on bathrooms & en suites, kitchens and show homes, and people most often call us about new-build shower sealant that has already split and gaps opening as the house dries out and settles.
Homes around Titchfield Common range from older cottages to newer houses, and their floors range just as widely, each moving in its own way. The sealant at skirtings and thresholds has to suit the floor it meets.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Titchfield Common and across Hampshire.

Common problems we fix in Titchfield Common
On many sites, sealant goes on in the final rush before handover. Dusty, unprimed joints are common, and the sealant sits on grit instead of the surface.
People normally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
If you’ve bought a new home near Swanwick station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
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.
How it works
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Parking around Titchfield Common 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.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
How to prepare
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Use the extractor fan every time you shower
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
Keep pictures of the joints and any snagging correspondence with your builder. It helps if anything else comes up during the warranty period.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Dealing with it before it goes black saves a harder job later.
What affects the quote in Titchfield Common
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- The number of rooms or windows
- The product the joint needs
- When we can work, for business premises
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Roughly how big the job is
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
FAQs for Titchfield Common
Can you do new build mastic in Titchfield Common?

Can I send you my snagging list?
Yes. Send the list and a few pictures of the sealant items, and we’ll quote. We will tell you if anything on it is not a sealant job.
When is the best time to reseal in a new build?
For failed seals that let water through, the best time is now. Cosmetic gaps can wait until the first year or two of movement has passed.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you’ll get one quote.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.

How long should I leave it?

Landlord and commercial work in Titchfield Common
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Why deal with it now?
It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. You get one visit and one clear quote for the lot. Around Titchfield Common, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.
