New build mastic in Aston Upthorpe, done properly
A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. When the finish is smeared, patchy or already cracking, it’s worth putting right early, before water gets into the floor or walls. If you’re dealing with gaps between new skirting and floors and sealant work across a run of new homes, we can help, whatever the surface.
Around Aston Upthorpe, 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.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will quote.
If you manage several properties in or around Aston Upthorpe, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
Watch the joints as the house settles. Small gaps can appear as the house dries and can be resealed later.
A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Have it resealed, and the tray or bath checked, before it gets worse.

What else we do in Aston Upthorpe
What affects the cost of new build mastic
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether the work is at height
- Mould in or behind the old joints
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Asking for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- The address or postcode of the job
- The type of property
If you are in Aston Upthorpe and need new build mastic, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we will agree the price before any work begins.
Different surfaces, different methods
Windows and doors
Internal joints between frames and plaster often crack as a new house dries. We cut out the cracked bead and reseal with a flexible sealant in a matching colour.
Bathrooms and en suites
New-build bathrooms and en suites are where sealant fails most often. The old sealant comes out and anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in after cleaning and priming.
Common problems we fix in Aston Upthorpe
If plaster or screed was still damp when it was sealed, the bond suffers. Site programmes don’t always leave time for joints to dry before the sealant goes on.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
Around Aston Upthorpe, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Before you book anyone
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- How long to leave it before use
Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it will not bond to the old layer. Taking it all out and starting again is the only way to get a lasting seal. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Aston Upthorpe, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.
