New build mastic in Ashurst, done properly
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 are dealing with leaking shower tray seals in a new home and cracks appearing as a new home settles, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Ashurst, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What happens on the day
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. It normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. In a small place like Ashurst, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
- New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
- The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Why act early in Ashurst
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but water getting through cannot. If you are unsure which you have, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with pictures. Around Ashurst, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What we cannot put right

- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath

FAQs for Ashurst
I let a flat near Ashurst Kent station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you cover smaller places like Ashurst?
Yes. Ashurst is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Is it worth resealing while the house is still settling?
Any seal that’s leaking should be redone right away. For small cosmetic gaps, waiting until the house has settled can save doing them twice.
Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so sealing over the top fails quickly. We cut the old bead out completely.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We’re based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Different surfaces, different methods
Skirting and floors
As timber and screed dry, skirting and floors shift. We use a flexible product rather than caulk painted or coloured to suit.
Bathrooms and en suites
Trays and baths in new builds settle as they’re used. We reseal once the old bead is fully out and baths are filled before sealing.
What we’re called out for in Ashurst
Baths and trays settle under load once the home is lived in. A bath sealed empty drops slightly when filled, straining the joint and the sealant may split.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
In and around Ashurst, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
