New build mastic in Aldworth

What the job involves on each surface

Plot handovers

Good preparation at handover saves snagging later. Dust from the build is removed first and primer used where needed.

Skirting and floors

Where the floor meets a bath panel or kitchen plinth, the joint keeps mop water out. We seal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.

New build mastic for homes and businesses in Aldworth

In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. When the finish is smeared, patchy or already cracking, it’s worth putting right early, before water reaches anything behind it. Typical jobs include plot mastic for developers ahead of handover and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list, on windows & doors, bathrooms & en suites and plot handovers.

Work in a small place like Aldworth just needs the journey and access planning, and the work itself is the same as on any site.

All our work comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Use the extractor fan every time you shower
  • Follow the cure time we give you
  • Record problems with dated photos
  • Get a leaking seal dealt with straight away

Do not stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray while the sealant cures. Report any movement in a bath or tray.

Early snagging is easier snagging. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak over time.

Do you need new build mastic in Aldworth?

The first winter with the heating on dries a new home quickly. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly and cracked sealant shows up.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Shower seals failing in the first year or two
  • Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
  • Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
  • Cracked caulk along new skirting

For new homes near Goring & Streatley station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

Questions from Aldworth

Do you cover smaller places like Aldworth?

Yes, Aldworth is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Do you work for landlords with property near Goring & Streatley station?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Should I wait before resealing?

Any seal that is leaking should be redone straight away. Cosmetic gaps can wait until the first year or two of movement has passed.

Are you insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.

How long does the job take?

It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. We will tell you when we quote.

Where do you work from?

We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months, large or small.

Which products do you use?

The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

What happens if it’s left?

For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Snagging visits for failed sealant cost time on every plot, and they’re avoidable with good preparation. Around Aldworth, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Why us?

  • ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • Colour picked to suit the job
  • 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews
  • Old sealant always removed completely

How the visit works

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots, and the area is left clean. For a village or hamlet like Aldworth, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. Each joint is checked for movement before work begins.
  2. We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
  3. We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
