New build mastic for homes and businesses in Stoke Poges
In a new home, every joint should have a clean, even bead. Smeared, patchy or cracked sealant is worth sorting early, before water reaches anything behind it. If you’re dealing with gaps between new skirting and floors and smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
For a new home in or near Stoke Poges, it’s worth checking the sealant early. Gaps at skirtings, shower seals pulling away and missing mastic around frames are common snags.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Joints and finishes in Stoke Poges homes
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
If you’ve bought a new home near Slough station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Don’t wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Follow the cure time we give you
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
Keep the bathroom ventilated, especially in the first year. Use the extractor fan or open a window after showers.
Do not let the snagging period run out with sealant problems unreported. After that, putting it right may fall to you so report it promptly.
Why deal with it now?
DIY kits do not solve the main problems with new-build sealant: dust, no primer and old sealant left in the joint. Cutting out, cleaning and priming are what make the difference. Around Stoke Poges, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.

When to call us in Stoke Poges
On many sites, sealant goes on in the final rush before handover. Joints aren’t always cleaned of dust or primed, so the bead never bonds properly.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- Cracked sealant around new window and door frames
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Beads laid onto grit and dust from the build
In and around Stoke Poges, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What happens on the day
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. A visit to Stoke Poges is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by agreeing which joints are on the list, from the snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- Failed or untidy sealant is cut out completely.
- Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.
- New sealant suited to each joint is applied and tooled neatly.
- Finally, each room is checked and you’re given the cure time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Stoke Poges questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Slough station?

Should I go to my builder first?
Start with the builder if you are in the snagging or warranty period. If it isn’t resolved, we will cut it out and reseal it.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why has my new-build shower seal failed already?
A new house dries and settles for a year or two, and sealant is often rushed onto dusty, unprimed surfaces. Both lead to early failure.
Can you match the sealant colour to my new kitchen or bathroom?
We use white, clear or a colour to suit the finishes. Tell us what you’d like when you get a quote.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. Over-sealing traps mould and water and soon fails. We remove every bit of the old bead before resealing.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
How the job changes by surface
Skirting and floors
Floors and skirting move as the house dries and the heating runs. We use a flexible product rather than caulk.
Plot handovers
Good preparation at handover saves snagging later. We clean out building dust before sealing and prime where the product needs it.
