How we handle new build mastic in Ascot
Developers send us the plot schedule and we work through it. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over. If you’re dealing with gaps behind new kitchen upstands and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks, we can put it right, on skirting & floors, windows & doors and show homes alike.
Around Ascot, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Why it’s worth doing now in Ascot
Small cosmetic gaps can wait for the house to settle, but a leaking seal cannot. Not sure whether yours can wait? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few photos and we will tell you. Around Ascot, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Bathrooms and en suites
En suite seals are easy to miss on a snagging list until they leak. Resealing properly keeps water where it belongs.
Windows and doors
Draughts around new frames are often a sealant gap. We check and reseal the frame edges.
What sealant work cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
- Damaged fittings that need replacing
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

Common problems we fix in Ascot
Sealant applied onto damp surfaces doesn’t bond well. On a busy site, joints aren’t always given time to dry first.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
If you’ve bought a new home near Ascot station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Ascot questions
Is Ascot within the area you cover?
Yes, Ascot is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Ascot station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, always. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Do you work through snagging lists?
Yes. We often work straight from a snagging list. We agree the sealant items with you before we start.
Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
It’s common, and there are normally two reasons: movement as the house dries and settles, and sealant laid onto dust without primer. A proper reseal deals with both.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
How we quote for new build mastic
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Access and height
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- When we can work, for business premises
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- The rough size of the job
- A few photos by email, if you can
- If someone has resealed it before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
