About our new build mastic in Eton Wick
Some owners wait for the first year’s movement before having joints redone. That makes sense for small gaps that are just cosmetic, but a seal that’s letting water through needs doing now. We work on bathrooms & en suites, kitchens and windows & doors, and the jobs we see most are sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces and plot mastic for developers ahead of handover.
Older homes in small places like Eton Wick 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, whatever its size.

Different surfaces, different methods
Bathrooms and en suites
Baths, showers, basins and trays in new bathrooms are the most common new-build reseal. We cut out the failed bead, clean and prime, and reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Show homes
In a show home, the sealant is on display. Every bead is neat and coloured to suit the room.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What else we do in Eton Wick
What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours in a single home, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Eton Wick, access is often the only tricky part. 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.
- A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
- Each area is checked and left with its cure time.
How to prepare
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents.
The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Left alone, a small crack can become a leak.

Quotes for new build mastic in Eton Wick
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- The number and length of the joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Which sealant suits the joint
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:

What we are called out for in Eton Wick
When the heating goes on in the first winter, the house dries fast. Skirting, frames and worktops pull away slightly.
The most common problems we see are:
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
In and around Eton Wick, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
What your quote should include
