New build mastic in South Hinksey
For builders and developers, we work through plots to the schedule you give us. Bathrooms, en suites, kitchens, frames and skirting are sealed ready for handover using the right product for each joint. If you are dealing with worktop and upstand sealant coming away and gaps opening as the house dries out and settles, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as South Hinksey, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What the job involves on each surface
Plot handovers
Plot mastic is carried out to the developer’s schedule. Joints are prepared properly before sealing.
Show homes
Bathrooms, kitchens and frames in show homes are sealed or resealed to a neat finish ready for viewings. We’ll plan around viewing times.
What affects the cost of new build mastic
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether the work is at height
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- When we can work, for business premises
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Roughly how big the job is
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that is easy.

Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Landlord and commercial work in South Hinksey
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean sealant with mild detergent, not abrasives
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Photograph failed sealant before it’s redone
Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Most silicones need around a day to cure enough for use.
Leave a failed new-build seal and water can reach the floor and the ceiling below. Early resealing keeps the job small and protects the rest of the house.
