About our new build mastic in Soake
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. We are often asked to deal with smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging and shower seals failing in the first year or two, on kitchens, windows & doors and skirting & floors.
Around Soake, 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.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Soake as everywhere else we work.

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
- Broken tiles or a split tray
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.

Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Record problems with dated photos
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Report sealant problems to your builder during the snagging period
Keep the bathroom ventilated, especially in the first year. Run the fan or open a window after bathing so moisture doesn’t sit on the sealant.
Do not let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. Once it ends, the repair may be down to you, so raise it early.
The process
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours in a single home, including the tidy-up. For a village or hamlet like Soake, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- 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.
- Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
- We apply a sealant that suits each joint and tool it to a neat finish.
- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Kitchens
Worktops in new homes can move slightly as the house dries, opening gaps behind the upstand. A fresh flexible bead closes them.
What else we do in Soake
Do you need new build mastic in Soake?
A new house holds a lot of water from the build, and it dries out over the first couple of years. As it does, timber shrinks and joints open, and sealant that can’t keep up splits.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
- Joints pulling apart as timber shrinks
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
In and around Soake, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
