New build mastic in Kirtlington, done properly

Some new-home owners let the house settle before resealing. For small cosmetic gaps, that is reasonable, but a failed shower or bath seal shouldn’t wait. Common call-outs are for leaking shower tray seals in a new home and cracked sealant around new window and door frames, on plot handovers, show homes and bathrooms & en suites.

For a small place like Kirtlington, the journey and access are planned in advance, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
  • Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
  • Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we seal

  • Bathrooms & en suites
  • Skirting & floors
  • Plot handovers
  • Show homes
  • Windows & doors
  • Kitchens

What the job involves on each surface

Bathrooms and en suites

En suite showers are a common source of leaks into the room below. Resealing properly keeps water where it belongs.

Windows and doors

External mastic around new windows and doors is sometimes rushed or missed. We reseal it with a weatherproof, flexible sealant.

Why it’s worth doing now in Kirtlington

Water getting past a failed seal in a new build reaches walls and floors that are still settling. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. Older cottages and farmhouses around Kirtlington can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.

What we do, step by step

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself usually takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots, depending on how much there is to do. In a small place like Kirtlington, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
  2. We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
  3. Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
  4. A sealant chosen for each area goes in and is tooled smooth.
  5. Each area is checked and left with its cure time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Can I do it myself?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.

Do you use white or clear sealant?

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.

Should I wait before resealing?

Common problems we fix in Kirtlington

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.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Internal frame sealant that has split
  • Sealant work across a run of new homes
  • Skirting joints opening in the first winter
  • Messy sealant that spoils new finishes

Around Kirtlington, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
