About our new build mastic in Five Oak Green
We never seal over a failed new-build bead. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. Common call-outs are for joints pulling apart as timber shrinks and new-build shower sealant that has already split, across kitchens, show homes and plot handovers.
Older homes in small places like Five Oak Green often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
What the job involves on each surface
Plot handovers
We work through plots to your schedule, sealing each room ready for handover. Joints are prepared properly before sealing to keep callbacks down.
Windows and doors
Draughts around new frames are often a sealant gap. We check and reseal the frame edges.

What happens if it’s left?
DIY kits do not solve the main problems with new-build sealant: grit, unprimed surfaces and old layers underneath. Proper removal and preparation are what make it last. Around Five Oak Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Get a leaking seal dealt with straight away
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
Keep photos of the joints and any snagging correspondence with your builder. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.
Do not let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. After that, putting it right may fall to you, so raise it early.
