What we’re called out for in Pitchcott
Later trades and the final clean can damage fresh sealant. If it’s disturbed before curing, the joint can be left weak.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Internal frame sealant that has split
In and around Pitchcott, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
What to look for in a quote
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
New build mastic in Pitchcott, done properly
A new build should have a neat, sound bead at every joint. When the finish is smeared, patchy or already cracking, it’s worth putting right early, before water gets into the floor or walls. We work on windows & doors, skirting & floors and bathrooms & en suites, and people most often call us about shower seals failing in the first year or two and gaps opening as the house dries out and settles.
Older homes in small places like Pitchcott often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Common questions in Pitchcott
Do you work for landlords with property near Aylesbury Vale Parkway station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you cover smaller places like Pitchcott?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything is not right with the work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Can I send you my snagging list?
Yes. We often work straight from a snagging list. We will go through the sealant items and agree what we’ll do.
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
- Get a leaking seal dealt with straight away
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
Leave the sealant for the cure time we give you before showering or bathing. Most silicones need around a day.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Dealing with it before it goes black saves a harder job later.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pitchcott
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Why act early in Pitchcott
A hairline gap at a skirting can wait, but water getting through cannot. If you’re unsure which you have, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with photos and we’ll tell you. Around Pitchcott, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before we start.
