I think that is what you are asking. Don't waste time trying to get the builder to do it. They wont. Find a trade supply store that does bulk boxes of sausage style sealers and do it yourself. It will take you a full day to get around your house to a good standard of finish. If you go Sika, it will be expensive. I've found Tremco Dymonic to be excellent quality and price. You can pick them up in bulk boxes of 20 sausages at 17 bucks a sausage. Buy the box. trust me, even if you have 2-3 left over, its worth having around. Also if you have the path already pulling away, you may need attiononal ableflex or foam backing rod to pack the additional gap before you seal. If you try to seal the newly expanded gaps without backing, the sealant will fall between the house and the path and you'll be wasting large amounts of expensive sealant.
