New build mastic in Yarnton, done properly
Dust is the enemy of new-build sealant. Each joint is cleaned of dust and primed where the product calls for it, so the new bead bonds properly instead of bonding to the dust. If you’re dealing with leaking shower tray seals in a new home and cracks appearing as a new home settles, we can help, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Yarnton, new homes are more likely to be a barn conversion or a handful of houses than a big estate. Every one needs its sealant and floor joints done properly, whatever the size of the site.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Yarnton and across Oxfordshire.

What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Damaged fittings that need replacing
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Baths and trays that move too much for sealant to cope with

Leave it or put it right?
Running a new bead over the builder’s sealant might look tidy for a few weeks, but it will not bond to the old layer. Taking it all out and starting again is the only way to get a lasting seal. In a small place like Yarnton, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

How it works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots and we leave things clean and tidy. In a small place like Yarnton, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by going through the snagging items or plot schedule with you.
- Every bit of the old builder’s sealant is cut out.
- Joints are vacuumed and cleaned of building dust.
- Primer goes on where the surface and product need it, then the new sealant.
- We tool every joint neatly and tell you when each area can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints

Different surfaces, different methods
Show homes
Show homes need sealant that looks right from day one. We lay neat, even beads in colours to suit the finishes.
Bathrooms and en suites
En suite showers are a common source of leaks into the room below. Resealing properly keeps water where it belongs.
Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
- Open a window or run the fan after bathing
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents, which can damage the surface.
A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Have it resealed, and the tray or bath checked, before it gets worse.

Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Do you need new build mastic in Yarnton?
If plaster or screed was still damp when it was sealed, the bond suffers. Site programmes don’t always leave time for joints to dry first.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Internal frame sealant that has split
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Second-fix sealing on new plots
- Shower seals failing in the first year or two
For new homes near Oxford Parkway station, it’s worth checking the sealant early, while snags are still fresh.
