About our new build mastic in Enslow
A new house keeps drying out and settling for its first couple of years. Timber dries and shrinks, and baths and trays settle, so sealant that was laid quickly before handover often cracks. If you have untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list and gaps behind new kitchen upstands, we can help, whatever the surface.
Older homes in small places like Enslow often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Enslow
The wrong product is sometimes used in the wrong place: caulk where water collects, or a rigid product on a moving joint. Neither lasts long.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
For new homes near Tackley station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Follow the cure time we give you
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Record problems with dated pictures
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off it, which can damage the surface.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Resealing before mould gets in keeps the job straightforward.
How the visit works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere as small as Enslow, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- New sealant goes in, with baths filled first so they’re at their heaviest.
- The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Move anything stored near the joints

When is the best time to reseal in a new build?

A typical job takes a few hours in a single home, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
