Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. It generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Somewhere as small as Whitchurch Hill, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Each joint is checked for movement before we start.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
- We check every joint and leave you with the cure times.
Preparing for the visit

Advice
New build mastic for homes and businesses in Whitchurch Hill
We work in new homes and on new-build sites across Whitchurch Hill. Whether it’s one en suite or a run of plots, the method is the same: remove, clean, prime where needed, then a neat new bead. If you are dealing with frame joints opening as the plaster dries and sealant applied over dusty or wet surfaces, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Whitchurch Hill, new homes tend to be conversions, self-builds or a few houses rather than an estate. Each still needs its sealant and floor joints finished properly.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Joints and finishes in Whitchurch Hill homes
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. 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.
How the job changes by surface
Kitchens
Sink joints are wet all the time. A kitchen sealant goes in there.
Show homes
We can refresh show-home sealant that has discoloured or been knocked. We cut it out and reseal neatly.
Signs you need new build mastic in Whitchurch Hill
Baths and trays settle under load once the home is lived in. A bath sealed empty drops slightly when filled, straining the joint and the sealant may split.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
- Messy sealant that spoils new finishes
- Kitchen sealant that has pulled off the wall
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
If you’ve bought a new home near Pangbourne station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.

Whitchurch Hill questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Pangbourne station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is Whitchurch Hill within the area you cover?
Yes. Whitchurch Hill is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you work for developers?
Yes. We work through plots to your schedule, room by room. Tell us the plots and the joints involved and we’ll quote.
Will you just run a new bead over the existing one?
No. Sealing over old sealant looks fine for a few weeks, then lifts. We remove every bit of the old bead before resealing.
How long should I leave it?
It depends on the product. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Can I send you my snagging list?
Yes. Photos of each sealant item help us quote. Items that need a plumber, tiler or the builder are flagged.
How do I get a quote for new build mastic in Whitchurch Hill?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Check bath and shower seals every few months as the house settles
- Follow the cure time we give you
Watch the joints as the house settles. Hairline gaps can open as timber and plaster dry.
A failed seal in a new home lets water into joists, plasterboard and ceilings. Catching it early keeps the fix to the sealant.
How we quote for new build mastic
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- The number and length of the joints
- The product the joint needs
- When we can work, for business premises
- The number of rooms or windows
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Whether it has been sealed before
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
