Why act early in Oad Street
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 Oad Street, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

How we handle new build mastic in Oad Street
If your new home has a leaking shower seal, open skirting joints or untidy sealant, we can help. If you’re still within the builder’s snagging or warranty period, tell them first, and if it isn’t put right, get in touch with us. If you have frame joints opening as the plaster dries and worktop and upstand sealant coming away, we can help, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Oad Street, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots for a typical job.

- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out down to clean surfaces.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- We prime where needed and apply a sealant suited to each joint.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.

Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Record problems with dated pictures
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone and keep the builder’s replies. It helps if anything else comes up during the warranty period.
A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Getting it resealed properly, and any movement checked, stops it recurring.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Can you work from my snagging list?
Yes. We often work straight from a snagging list. We agree the sealant items with you before work begins.
Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?
No. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to the old layer, so it soon lifts and traps water. The old sealant always comes out first.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels, and we’re fully insured.
How long before the joint can be used?
It depends on the product. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.
