Remedial sealant across Argyll and Bute: what to expect

Decorators’ caulk in a shower, bathroom silicone on a window, a rigid filler in a movement joint fails however neatly it’s applied. We take it out and use a sealant made for that joint. Typical jobs include decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower and leaks that keep coming back after resealing, across shrunken worktop sealant, mouldy bath & shower sealant and failed movement joints.

When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. The work generally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out.

We protect the surfaces around the joint.
Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.

What you will pay

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What’s near Helensburgh

In Helensburgh, that means homes and buildings near Lomond School, The Henry Bell pub and St Joseph's R.C. Church. Helensburgh has its own railway station: Helensburgh Central station.

Where we work in Argyll and Bute

Across Argyll and Bute, from Helensburgh, Oban and Dunoon outwards, we see bathrooms and kitchens of every age. Family bathrooms, rented flats and hotel en suites all need their sealant and grout renewing in time.

Homes in Scotland come with their own details: harled walls, sash and case windows and, in the larger towns and cities, tenements. Argyll and Bute is part of the area we cover across Scotland. Coastal guest houses and holiday lets in Argyll and Bute can see heavy use in busy months, which is hard on sealant and grout.

Helensburgh: Homes close to St Joseph's R.C. Church include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Managing a site like Lomond School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What happens if it’s left?

Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but not by much: it takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent.

Aftercare tips

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
Run the fan after every shower
Act on a lifting corner right away

Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.

Signs to act on: peeling layers, mould showing through the bead, leaks after showering or cracks in a movement joint. Each one is worth getting looked at.

What we are called out for in Argyll and Bute

Joint depth matters. A bead bonded on three sides, or laid too thick, can’t flex, and tears at the first real movement. Backing sets the depth and stops that.

People usually contact us when they notice one of these:

Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
Repeat leaks from the same joint
Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
Torn expansion joints
