New build mastic for homes and businesses in Tye
Our new-build work comes in two parts: plot mastic for developers, and putting right failed sealant for people who’ve bought a new home. In both, preparation makes the difference since hurried prep is behind a lot of new-build failures. We work on windows & doors, skirting & floors and plot handovers, and common reasons people get in touch are sealant work across a run of new homes and internal frame sealant that has split.
Somewhere as small as Tye, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Joints and finishes in Tye homes
Tye is within about 1 mile of the coast. New homes near the sea put their outside mastic to work from day one, so any gaps are best picked up early. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
For new homes near Emsworth station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

Questions from Tye
Can you do new build mastic in Tye?
Yes, Tye is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Is Tye within the area you cover?
Yes, Tye is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?
That depends on what the joint meets: white or clear in most bathrooms, and a colour to suit worktops, frames and floors elsewhere. We will agree it with you first.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.
How long does the job take?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours in a single home. We will tell you when we quote.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Can you do plot mastic on a new development?
Yes. We carry out plot mastic and second-fix sealing for builders and developers. Send us the plot schedule and we’ll quote.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it, which can damage the surface.
A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Getting it resealed properly, and any movement checked, stops it recurring.
What we’re called out for in Tye
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.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
- New-build shower sealant that has already split
Around Tye, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- What product goes in the joint
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
Should I try it myself first?
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’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
What we do, step by step
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Somewhere as small as Tye, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- Each area is checked and left with its cure time.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Different surfaces, different methods
Skirting and floors
As timber and screed dry, skirting and floors shift. Caulk cracks; a flexible sealant moves with it in a colour to suit.
Kitchens
Worktops in new homes can move slightly as the house dries, which opens gaps along the back. We reseal them with a flexible sealant.
