Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Put sealant faults on your snagging list early
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it, which can damage the surface.
Lifting sealant traps moisture and mould behind it. Resealing before mould gets in keeps the job straightforward.
New build mastic in Barton
Building dust is behind a lot of failed new-build sealant. Each joint is cleaned of dust and primed where the product calls for it, so the new bead bonds properly rather than sitting on a layer of grit. We work on kitchens, skirting & floors and bathrooms & en suites, and people most often call us about untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list and sealant that never bonded to the surface.
In and around Barton, floors range from older timber boards to tiles and newer finishes, from timber that moves with the seasons to tiles laid on concrete. The sealant at skirtings and thresholds has to suit the floor it meets.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What happens on the day
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. A visit to Barton is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- Each joint is checked for movement before any work starts.
- Old sealant is cut out and the joints cleaned.
- We make sure the joints are dry and prime them if needed.
- Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
- The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

When it isn’t the sealant
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
