Aftercare tips

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:

  • Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
  • Wait for the cure time we give you
  • Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
  • Wipe the sealant dry after showering

Wipe up standing water along the worktop joint. The drier the joint stays, the longer it lasts.

A failed kitchen joint is easy to miss. Splashes run behind the back edge and soak into the worktop, where it can make the board swell. A reseal in time can save the worktop.

How we handle bathroom resealing in West Green

The secret of a lasting bead is the preparation. Every bit of old silicone comes out, down to the thin film left on the tiles, then the joint is cleaned, degreased and treated for mould. Only once it’s dry does the new bead go on. We are often asked to deal with cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone and a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal, across sinks & splashbacks, baths and basins & vanity units.

Smaller places like West Green still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.

Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

DIY versus a professional finish

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

What the job involves on each surface

Wet rooms

Not every wet room leak is a sealant problem. We check the joints and say so if the fault looks to be elsewhere.

Sinks & splashbacks

Next to the sink, the sealant has to cope with constant water, including a food-safe sealant where that’s needed. The joint is laid neatly so it’s easy to wipe.

What happens if it’s left?

Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. Cutting it out and resealing with anti-fungal silicone is the fix that lasts. Homes in smaller places like West Green can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.

What happens on the day

When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work usually takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. A visit to West Green is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant, including the film left on the tiles.
  2. Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
  3. The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
  4. We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
  5. Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

Common problems we fix in West Green

Silicone needs a clean, dry surface without any grease to stick to. Traces of soap, bath oil and old sealant stop it gripping, and a joint that looked fine soon begins to come away.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Failed sealant on the screen profile
  • Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
  • Smears of silicone across the tiles
  • A bead that has pulled away from the tiles

Rented homes near Crawley station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets.

  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • Is VAT in the price?

What affects the quote in West Green

The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Working hours on commercial sites

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

West Green homes and their sealant

West Green is part of Crawley, one of the post-war new towns. Many homes date from the post-war decades, so bathrooms and kitchens may be on their second or third set of sealant. Sealant laid over old sealant never bonds properly, so it all has to come out. West Green has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.

Schools such as West Green Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Homes close to Voice of Deliverance Full Gospel Church of God include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
