- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
New build mastic for homes and businesses in Mop End
Developers send us the plot schedule and we work through it. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, windows, doors and skirting so plots are ready to hand over. If you’re dealing with shower seals failing in the first year or two and cracked sealant around new window and door frames, we can help, whatever the surface.
Around Mop End, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, so skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant rather than a rigid filler.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Mop End and across Buckinghamshire.

What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty

For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Follow the cure time we give you
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents as they wear the bead.
Don’t let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. After that, putting it right may fall to you so report it promptly.
Why deal with it now?
A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Dealing with it early keeps the damage away from ceilings, floors and finishes. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Mop End, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Your questions about new build mastic in Mop End
Do you cover Mop End for new build mastic?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Mop End is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Will you come out to Mop End?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so sealing over the top fails quickly. The old sealant always comes out first.
How do I get a quote for new build mastic in Mop End?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.

On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. The work normally takes a few hours in a single home.

- We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- The old bead comes out in full, with no layer left behind.

- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.
