Landlord and commercial work in Cothill
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
New build mastic in Cothill
We never seal over a failed new-build bead. Fresh silicone can’t bond to the old layer, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. If you have cracks appearing as a new home settles and cracked sealant around new window and door frames, we can help, whatever the surface.
For a small place like Cothill, the journey and access are planned in advance, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Surface by surface
Skirting and floors
As timber and screed dry, skirting and floors shift. We use a flexible product rather than caulk in a colour to suit.
Kitchens
New-kitchen sealant is often applied in a rush. We remove it and reseal with a kitchen-suitable sealant.
What sealant work cannot fix
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Why it’s worth doing now in Cothill
For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Every return visit for a failed seal takes time. In a small place like Cothill, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

How we quote for new build mastic
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- The amount of work
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number of rooms or windows
- Which sealant suits the joint
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- The address or postcode of the job
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Photos by email, if that is easy
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that’s easier. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll explain what’s involved and send you a clear quote.
When to call us in Cothill
Sealant applied onto damp surfaces does not bond well. On a busy site, joints are not always given time to dry before the sealant goes on.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Cracks appearing as a new home settles
- Cracked caulk along new skirting
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
In and around Cothill, as anywhere, good new build mastic starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Your questions about new build mastic in Cothill
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Radley station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you cover Cothill for new build mastic?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Cothill is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
How much does new build mastic cost in Cothill?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
Will you just run a new bead over the existing one?
No. Over-sealing traps mould and water and soon fails. We remove every bit of the old bead before resealing.
Do you use white or clear sealant?
The colour is chosen to suit the tiles, worktop or frame. Tell us what you’d like when you get a quote.
How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the number of plots. Somewhere as small as Cothill, access is often the only tricky part. 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.
- The failed sealant is removed completely down to clean surfaces.
- 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
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention any tricky access
Getting a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job.
