New build mastic for homes and businesses in West Thorney

We never seal over a failed new-build bead. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so the joint is cut out, cleaned, dried and resealed. We work on skirting & floors, bathrooms & en suites and kitchens, and the jobs we see most are new-build shower sealant that has already split and gaps between new skirting and floors.

Somewhere as small as West Thorney, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Do you cover West Thorney for new build mastic?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and West Thorney is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

What does new build mastic cost?

We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You’ll get a clear quote before work begins.

Should I go to my builder first?

Your builder, if you’re still in their snagging or warranty period. If that does not work out, we are happy to quote.

Different surfaces, different methods

Show homes

We seal show-home bathrooms, kitchens and frames to a tidy standard. Tell us when the home is open so we can plan around it.

Plot handovers

Developers can send the plot schedule and specification for a quote. Sealant work across the plot is covered.

Aftercare tips

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
  • Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
  • Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
  • Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period

Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it, which can damage the surface.

Leave a failed new-build seal and water can reach the floor and the ceiling below. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant and the new finishes intact.

What we do, step by step

We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, 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. In a small place like West Thorney, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
  3. Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
  4. New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
  5. We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

How we quote for new build mastic

You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It takes into account:

  • How many areas need sealing
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • The number and length of the joints

The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Asking for a quote

To make quoting easier, please include:

  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What sealant work can’t fix

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
  • Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
  • Settlement cracks that need a surveyor

If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

New build mastic in West Thorney: local notes

West Thorney is within about 1 mile 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.

In and around West Thorney, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. For new homes near Southbourne station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

Why act early in West Thorney

The builder is generally the first port of call while the snagging or warranty period runs. If it’s slow, or the same joint keeps failing, a proper reseal from a specialist is the next step. In a small place like West Thorney, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
