New build mastic around Leafield

Around Leafield, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it. For new homes near Ascott-Under-Wychwood station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.

New build mastic in Leafield, done properly
Building dust is behind a lot of failed new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the new bead bonds properly rather than sitting on a layer of grit. We’re often asked to deal with leaking shower tray seals in a new home and untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list, across windows & doors, show homes and kitchens.
Older homes in small places like Leafield often have timber floors that move with the seasons, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Should I try it myself first?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
What affects the quote in Leafield
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number and length of the joints
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email photos if that is easy.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can be quoted together.
How the visit works
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 Leafield, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We go through the snagging list or plot schedule and agree the joints to do.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.
- We clean off dust from the build and prime the surfaces where the product needs it.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
How to get a quote

Why act early in Leafield
A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Resealing promptly protects the new finishes around it. Older cottages and farmhouses around Leafield can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
Do not stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray while the sealant cures. Report any movement in a bath or tray.
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.
How the job changes by surface
Skirting and floors
Where the floor meets a bath panel or kitchen plinth, the joint keeps mop water out. They get a flexible, water-resistant sealant.
Bathrooms and en suites
En suite showers are a common source of leaks into the room below. A proper reseal keeps water in the tray.
