About our remedial sealant in Ardersier
A movement joint stops working when its sealant splits or sets hard. The old sealant comes out and backing goes in to control the depth, then a flexible sealant matched to the movement goes in. Common call-outs are for products that weren’t meant for the joint and gaps opening along the back of the worktop, on botched or over-sealed joints, shrunken worktop sealant and leaking tray & enclosure joints.
Being further from a city does not change the work: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Highland.

When to call us in Ardersier
Some joints fail because water is reaching them from behind. A leaking valve, a failed waste or cracked grout feeds water behind the bead, so the silicone goes mouldy or lets go.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- Over-sealed joints coming away
If you let a flat or house near Inverness Airport station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

How it works
We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere like Ardersier may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Run the fan after every shower
- Never seal over old silicone
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
Go easy on the new sealant: a mild cleaner and a soft cloth, with no blades or scourers.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
Leave it or put it right?
Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint doesn’t reach what’s underneath. The layers have to come out. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Combining jobs into one visit normally 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.

Ardersier questions

Is Ardersier within the area you cover?
Yes, Ardersier is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
How much does remedial sealant cost in Ardersier?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels in Ardersier.
How long does the work take?
Longer than a simple reseal, because every layer has to come out. Most jobs take a few hours.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Can I do it myself?
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.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
Ardersier homes and their sealant
Ardersier is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.
Around Ardersier, as everywhere, remedial sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.
