Remedial sealant in Aimes Green, done properly

Remedial work is what we do when sealant has failed or been done badly. New sealant over old, smeared beads, unsuitable products and hidden mould all need stripping out before the joint can be done properly. If you’re dealing with sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted and movement joints that have split or pulled away, we can help, whatever the surface.

Somewhere as small as Aimes Green, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.

Our work is backed for twelve months, in Aimes Green and everywhere else we cover.

What affects the quote in Aimes Green

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of sealant required
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved

Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

What to tell us for a quote

When you contact us, these details help:

  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Aimes Green

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can go on one quote, and we are fully insured.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.

DIY versus a professional finish

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

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 fails, we can still redo it.

Why deal with it now?

Hidden water does the most damage: wet floors, stained ceilings and swollen worktops. By comparison, sorting the joint is quick. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Aimes Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Why book with us

  • Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
  • ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • We’re fully insured
  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels

Common problems we fix in Aimes Green

One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. Silicone doesn’t bond to silicone, so the new layer peels, and damp and mould settle between them.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Repeat leaks from the same joint
  • Products that weren’t meant for the joint
  • Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
  • Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones

Schools such as King Harold Business & Enterprise Academy are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How to choose a mastic man

Surface by surface

Movement & expansion joints

Movement joints in floors, walls and façades need a flexible sealant set to the right depth. We remove the failed sealant, fit backing and reseal with a low-modulus product.

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Mould that has grown into silicone does not clean out for good. All of it comes out, and the joint is treated and dried ahead of a new anti-fungal bead.

The process

When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere like Aimes Green needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
  2. All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
  4. Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
  5. The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.

How to prepare

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Mention any tricky access
