About our new build mastic in Wolverton Common
Some owners wait for the first year’s movement before having joints redone. For small cosmetic gaps, that is reasonable, but a failed shower or bath seal shouldn’t wait. Common call-outs are for gaps behind new kitchen upstands and joints pulling apart as timber shrinks, across bathrooms & en suites, show homes and windows & doors.
Around Wolverton Common, older homes often have timber floors that move through the year, which is why skirting and threshold joints need a flexible sealant, not filler.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

What happens if it’s left?
Sealant done properly at handover means fewer callbacks. Every return visit for a failed seal takes time and most come down to preparation. In a small place like Wolverton Common, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
Why us?
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
- 12-month guarantee on every job

What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere as small as Wolverton Common, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, the list of joints is agreed from your snagging sheet or plot schedule.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out down to clean surfaces.
- We clean out the dust and grit left from the build.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- Each bead is tooled and the cure times explained.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

FAQs for Wolverton Common
Will you come out to Wolverton Common?
Yes, Wolverton Common is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

My new home is still under warranty. Should I contact you?
Start with your builder while their snagging or warranty period runs. If that does not work out, we’re happy to quote with our one-year guarantee.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Do you use white or clear sealant?
The colour is chosen to suit the tiles, worktop or frame. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
Can new sealant go on top of the old bead?
No. The old sealant is cut out fully, the joint cleaned and primed where needed, and a new bead applied.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Should I wait before resealing?
For failed seals that let water through, the best time is now. Cosmetic gaps can wait until the first year or two of movement has passed.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Get a leaking seal dealt with right away
Keep an eye on the joints over the first couple of years. Small gaps can appear as the house dries, and they’re simple to reseal once movement has slowed.
Report failed sealant to the builder while you are in the snagging period. Once it ends, the repair may be down to you.
Can I do it myself?
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.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Common problems we fix in Wolverton Common
Not every new-build joint gets the right sealant: decorators’ caulk in a wet area, or a stiff sealant where there’s movement. Both fail early.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Plot mastic for developers ahead of handover
- Frame joints opening as the plaster dries
- Smeared, uneven beads picked up at snagging
For new homes near Midgham station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
What your quote should include
- Is VAT in the price?
- Who turns up on the day
- What product goes in the joint

When it isn’t the sealant

- Your warranty claim itself, which is between you and the builder
- A tray or bath that is not properly supported, until it’s fixed
