New build mastic for homes and businesses in Totton
Building dust is behind a lot of failed new-build sealant. Each joint is cleaned of dust and primed where the product calls for it, so the new bead bonds properly. Typical jobs include internal frame sealant that has split and sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces, across show homes, kitchens and plot handovers.
In a town like Totton, older houses sit alongside newer estates, with new homes still going up on the edge of many towns. In a newer home, sealant and floor joints are usually among the first things to need attention.

Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Most silicones need around a day.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you’re in the snagging period. Once it ends, the repair may be down to you so report it promptly.
Questions from Totton
Do you cover Totton for new build mastic?
Yes, Totton is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Is there a guarantee on new build mastic in Totton?

When is the best time to reseal in a new build?
That depends on the joint. Failed seals in wet areas need doing now, but cosmetic gaps can wait for movement to slow.
Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?
It depends on the joint: white or clear in most bathrooms, and a colour to suit worktops, frames and floors elsewhere. We’ll agree it with you first.
Are you an approved applicator?

New homes and floors in Totton
Totton is within about 2 miles of the coast. Plot mastic on new homes near the coast takes more weather than it would inland, so it’s worth checking at snagging. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
For new homes near Totton station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh. Around Totton, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

How the job changes by surface
Skirting and floors
As timber and screed dry, skirting and floors shift. We use a flexible product rather than caulk painted or coloured to suit.
Bathrooms and en suites
En suite showers are a common source of leaks into the room below. Resealing properly keeps water where it belongs.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

- Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Each area is checked and left with its cure time.
