About our new build mastic in Boughton Green
New homes move as they dry out. Timber shrinks, plaster dries and baths and trays bed down, and sealant applied in a hurry at handover can split. Typical jobs include worktop and upstand sealant coming away and leaking shower tray seals in a new home, on plot handovers, kitchens and show homes.
In a village or hamlet like Boughton Green, 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.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Why it’s worth doing now in Boughton Green
Running a new bead over the builder’s sealant might look tidy for a few weeks, but it will not bond to the old layer. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. Around Boughton Green, 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 reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
Why Boughton Green customers choose us
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Old sealant always removed completely
- 20+ years of sealant experience
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Follow the cure time we give you
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
Keep an eye on the joints over the first couple of years. Hairline gaps can open as timber and plaster dry.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you are in the snagging period. After that, putting it right may fall to you.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:

- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.

How we quote for new build mastic
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- When we can work, for business premises
- How many areas need sealing
- Any mould that needs treating
- The number and length of the joints
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Roughly how big the job is
- Where the property is
- The type of property
- How we’d reach the joints
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work and give you a clear price.
Landlord and commercial work in Boughton Green
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can be quoted together.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
