New build mastic near Peppard Hill

New build mastic in Peppard Hill, done properly

In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water reaches anything behind it. We work on show homes, windows & doors and bathrooms & en suites, and people most often call us about untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list and cracks appearing as a new home settles.

Around Peppard Hill, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after we have gone.

Why it’s worth doing now in Peppard Hill

Sealant done properly at handover means fewer callbacks. Every return visit for a failed seal takes time, and they’re avoidable with good preparation. In a small place like Peppard Hill, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

How to choose a mastic man

Peppard Hill: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords with property near Henley-On-Thames station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.

Will you come out to Peppard Hill?

Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Is there any odour?

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

Should I go to my builder first?

Report it to the builder first while you’re covered. Once that’s done, or if they won’t put it right, we can reseal it properly.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Just list everything you need and you’ll get one quote.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.

What colour sealant will you use?

That depends on what the joint meets: white or clear in most bathrooms, and a colour to suit worktops, frames and floors elsewhere. We agree the colour before any work starts.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.

How the job changes by surface

Windows and doors

External mastic around new windows and doors is sometimes rushed or missed. It’s resealed with an exterior sealant suited to the frame and wall.

Skirting and floors

Gaps under skirting are one of the most common new-build snags. We seal it with a flexible sealant that copes with the movement.

Landlord and commercial work in Peppard Hill

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

What affects the quote in Peppard Hill

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • How easy the joints are to reach

What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Asking for a quote

To make quoting easier, please include:

  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Whether it’s a home or a business

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Cracking that points to a structural problem
  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
  • Broken tiles or a split tray

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
