How we handle new build mastic in Stoke Charity
New homes move as they dry out. Timber shrinks, plaster dries and baths and trays bed down, and sealant applied in a hurry at handover can split. We work on plot handovers, kitchens and show homes, and the jobs we see most are internal frame sealant that has split and smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging.
Older homes in small places like Stoke Charity often have timber floors that move with the seasons, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Stoke Charity and everywhere else we cover.

If you’ve bought a new home near Micheldever station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two. In and around Stoke Charity, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots.

Landlord and commercial work in Stoke Charity
Landlords and agents in Stoke Charity can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
What affects the cost of new build mastic
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- Any mould that needs treating
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number and length of the joints
- Access and height

Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- The rough size of the job
- A few photos by email, if you can

Getting a quote is simple: let us know what needs doing and where. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will come back to you with a quote.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
How the job changes by surface
Bathrooms and en suites
Trays and baths in new builds settle as they’re used. The joint is stripped back before the new bead goes in and baths are filled before sealing.
Plot handovers
We work through plots to your schedule, sealing each room ready for handover. Each joint is cleaned and primed where needed so the sealant lasts.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Cracking that points to a structural problem
- Leaking fittings rather than failed sealant
- A tray or bath that is not properly supported, until it’s fixed
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before booking.
Where we work in Stoke Charity
- Bathrooms & en suites
- Windows & doors
- Show homes
- Skirting & floors
- Kitchens
- Plot handovers
Leave it or put it right?
A failed shower or bath seal in a new home lets water into floors and walls that are still drying out. Dealing with it early keeps the damage away from ceilings, floors and finishes. Older cottages and farmhouses around Stoke Charity can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Why book with us
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
