New-build sealant joints in Botolph Claydon need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, with a one-year guarantee.

What happens if it’s left?
The builder is usually the first port of call while the snagging or warranty period runs. If it keeps failing or isn’t dealt with, we can reseal it properly. Older cottages and farmhouses around Botolph Claydon can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

New build mastic in Botolph Claydon, done properly
New homes move as they dry out. Timber dries and shrinks, and baths and trays settle, and sealant applied in a hurry at handover can split. We’re often asked to deal with new-build shower sealant that has already split and sealant that never bonded to the surface, across windows & doors, show homes and skirting & floors.
Somewhere as small as Botolph Claydon, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
How the visit works
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere as small as Botolph Claydon, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- Surfaces are cleaned of building dust and primed where needed.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It helps if anything else comes up during the warranty period.
The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Small faults turn into leaks if left over time.

When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
- A tray or bath that is not properly supported, until it’s fixed
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
