What we are called out for in Walter's Ash

- New-build shower sealant that has already split
- Gaps behind new kitchen upstands
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
- Sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces
Around Walter's Ash, as everywhere, new build mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.

New build mastic in Walter's Ash: local notes

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Avoid running a DIY bead over the old one
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
- Ventilate bathrooms well, especially in the first year
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
Ventilation matters in a new home, which is still drying out. Use the extractor fan or open a window after showers to help keep mould away.
A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Early resealing keeps the job small and protects the rest of the house.
Leave it or put it right?
A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it cannot bond to what’s underneath. Taking it all out and starting again is the only way to get a lasting seal. Around Walter's Ash, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.
Why book with us
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- We’re fully insured

What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Settlement cracks that need a surveyor
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
- Plumbing faults behind the sealant
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Windows & doors
- Bathrooms & en suites
- Show homes
- Skirting & floors
- Plot handovers
- Kitchens
Surface by surface
Bathrooms and en suites
Shower trays in new homes often move slightly in the first year. The joint is stripped back before the new bead goes in and baths are filled before sealing.
Skirting and floors
Where the floor meets a bath panel or kitchen plinth, the joint keeps mop water out. We seal them with a sealant suited to wet areas.
What happens on the day
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. The job normally takes a few hours in a single home. Somewhere like Walter's Ash needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
