About our new build mastic in Denchworth
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. If you’re dealing with gaps opening as the house dries out and settles and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list, we can put it right.
Around Denchworth, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Denchworth and across Oxfordshire.

Honest limits
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. It will not solve:
- A tray or bath that is not properly supported, until it’s fixed
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before booking.

Why deal with it now?
If you are still in the builder’s snagging or warranty period, ask them to put it right first. If it’s slow, or the same joint keeps failing, a proper reseal from a specialist is the next step. In a small place like Denchworth, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.

Questions from Denchworth
Is there a guarantee on new build mastic in Denchworth?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you cover Denchworth for new build mastic?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Denchworth is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes, regularly. We can quote for several properties at once.
Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?
No. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to the old layer, so sealing over the top fails quickly. We cut the old bead out completely.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Do I need to be at home?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?
Lots of new homes see sealant crack early as timber and plaster dry out. Rushed application on dusty surfaces makes it worse.
What affects the quote in Denchworth
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Any mould that needs treating
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How easy the joints are to reach
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What we need to know
When you call or email, these details help:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that’s easy.
What happens on the day
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots for a typical job. Somewhere as small as Denchworth, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
Watch the joints as the house settles. Hairline gaps can open as timber and plaster dry and can be resealed later.
Early snagging is easier snagging. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak.
