Why it’s worth doing now in Aston Rowant

A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. Older cottages and farmhouses around Aston Rowant can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

What you get with us

  • Over 20 years’ experience

New build mastic in Aston Rowant

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. Common call-outs are for worktop and upstand sealant coming away and cracked caulk along new skirting, across show homes, kitchens and plot handovers.

Older homes in small places like Aston Rowant often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee.

What the job involves on each surface

Windows and doors

A draught at a new window can be a missed or failed joint. We look at the joints and reseal where needed.

Show homes

In a show home, the sealant is on display. Every bead is neat and coloured to suit the room.

What we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
  • A tray or bath that isn’t properly supported, until it’s fixed
  • Disputes or warranty claims with your builder

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

What we seal

  • Show homes
  • Kitchens
  • Bathrooms & en suites
  • Skirting & floors
  • Plot handovers
  • Windows & doors

Can I do it myself?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

Questions from Aston Rowant

Will you come out to Aston Rowant?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Is new build mastic in Aston Rowant guaranteed?

All our work, in Aston Rowant and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Should I try DIY first?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

How long does new build mastic take?

As a guide, most jobs take a few hours in a single home. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we will tell you how long to expect.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.

Should I wait before resealing?

Where water is getting through, do not wait. Small gaps that are just cosmetic can be resealed once movement has slowed.

Will it make a mess?

Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we’re done.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels.

Aftercare tips

A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:

  • Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
  • Record problems with dated pictures
  • Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
  • Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop

Avoid standing on the rim of the bath or the edge of the tray. If a bath or tray moves when you stand in it, get it looked at.

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

Do you need new build mastic in Aston Rowant?

If plaster or screed was still damp when it was sealed, the bond suffers. On a busy site, joints are not always given time to dry before the sealant goes on.

People normally contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
  • Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
  • Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
  • Cracks appearing as a new home settles

Whether the job is in Aston Rowant itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

  • How much experience the applicator has

How the visit works

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. For a village or hamlet like Aston Rowant, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
  2. Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
  3. Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
  4. A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
  5. Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any tricky access
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on
