How we handle new build mastic in Enborne Row
In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. When the finish is smeared, patchy or already cracking, it’s worth putting right early, before water gets into the floor or walls. We work on bathrooms & en suites, show homes and kitchens, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps opening as the house dries out and settles and new-build shower sealant that has already split.
Older homes in small places like Enborne Row often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Questions from Enborne Row
Do you work for landlords with property near Newbury station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Enborne Row?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
Why does sealant fail so quickly in new builds?
There are generally two causes: the house moving as it dries, and sealant that never bonded properly. A proper reseal deals with both.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so sealing over the top fails quickly. The old sealant always comes out first.
What colour sealant will you use?
It depends on the joint: white or clear for most sanitary joints, colours for worktops, floors and frames. We agree the colour before any work starts.
What information do you need?
Tell us what needs doing and where, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, always. Each job is guaranteed for twelve months, large or small.
How we quote for new build mastic
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Any mould that needs treating
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The size of the job
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- The address or postcode of the job
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 add photos by email if you can.
How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
Wipe the sealant with warm soapy water. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents as they wear the bead.
A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Early resealing keeps the job small and the new finishes intact.
What the job involves on each surface
Kitchens
Sink joints are wet all the time. We use a sealant suited to kitchens.
Show homes
We can refresh show-home sealant that has discoloured or been knocked. The old bead comes out and a clean new one goes in.

Around Enborne Row, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it. If you’ve bought a new home near Newbury station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Why it’s worth doing now in Enborne Row
For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Snagging visits for failed sealant cost time on every plot. Around Enborne Row, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins.
Why us?

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.
How it works
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, and the area is left clean. In a small place like Enborne Row, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Finally, each room is checked and you are given the cure time.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
