Landlord and commercial work in Milton

How we handle new build mastic in Milton
Snagging sealant properly means taking the failed bead out completely. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it all comes out before we clean, dry and reseal. If you have gaps behind new kitchen upstands and plot mastic for developers ahead of handover, we can put it right.
Work in a small place like Milton just needs the journey and access planning, and once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Why act early in Milton
A quick bead over the top of the old sealant can look fine at first, but it won’t bond to the old layer. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. Older cottages and farmhouses around Milton can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.

Different surfaces, different methods
Bathrooms and en suites
Baths, showers, basins and trays in new bathrooms are the most common new-build reseal. The old sealant comes out and anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in after cleaning and priming.
Show homes
In a show home, the sealant is on display. We lay neat, even beads in colours to suit the finishes.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for most snagging lists, longer for a run of plots. Somewhere as small as Milton, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
- Keep water off fresh sealant until it has cured
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Do not wait for the house to settle if water is getting through
Follow the cure time we give you before the area gets wet. Most silicones need around a day.
The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Small faults turn into leaks if left.
What affects the quote in Milton
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The size of the job
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Roughly how big the job is
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll take it from there.
