New build mastic in Sherfield on Loddon
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. We clean every joint thoroughly and prime where the surface and product need it, so the sealant actually sticks rather than sitting on a layer of grit. If you’re dealing with second-fix sealing on new plots and worktop and upstand sealant coming away, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Sherfield on Loddon, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Surface by surface
Plot handovers
Developers can send the plot schedule and specification. We seal bathrooms, kitchens, frames and floors to the agreed spec.
Windows and doors
On new builds, external frame sealant can be patchy. It’s resealed with an exterior sealant suited to the frame and wall.

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured for the work.

A new house holds a lot of water from the build, which takes a year or two to dry out. As it does, timber shrinks and joints open and the sealant has to cope with the movement.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
In and around Sherfield on Loddon, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
