New build mastic in Eddington, done properly
Across Eddington, we work for both new-home owners and the builders handing those homes over. Whether it’s one en suite or a run of plots, the method is the same: cut out, clean, prime where needed and reseal neatly. We work on windows & doors, skirting & floors and show homes, and people most often call us about sealant work across a run of new homes and frame joints opening as the plaster dries.
Around Eddington, 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.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Why act early in Eddington
It often makes sense to do all the sealant items on a snagging list together. You get one visit and one clear quote. Around Eddington, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
Why Eddington clients choose us
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- Old sealant always removed completely
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting

Different surfaces, different methods
Bathrooms and en suites
Baths, showers, basins and trays in new bathrooms are the most common new-build reseal. The old sealant comes out and anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in after cleaning and priming.
Show homes
We seal show-home bathrooms, kitchens and frames to a tidy standard. We’ll plan around viewing times.

What else we do in Eddington
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
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.
What we are called out for in Eddington
When the heating goes on in the first winter, the house dries fast. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly.
People normally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
Around Eddington, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
