Remedial sealant in Milton Keynes: how it works

Movement and expansion joints fail when the sealant cannot stretch. We cut out the failed sealant and set the depth with backing, before resealing with a flexible product suited to the movement. Typical jobs include over-sealed joints coming away and wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones, across shrunken worktop sealant, expansion joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.

All our tools and materials come with us in the van. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out.

  1. Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
  2. Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
  3. The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
  4. New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.
  5. You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.

Pricing in Milton Keynes

Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Where we work in Milton Keynes

From Bletchley, Newport Pagnell and Bletchley and Fenny Stratford to its smaller places, homes across Milton Keynes have bathrooms and kitchens of every age. Family bathrooms, rented flats and hotel en suites all need their sealant and grout renewing in time.

From Victorian terraces to post-war new towns and modern estates, homes across the South East and London cover every era. The right sealant depends on the age and materials of the building, wherever it is in Milton Keynes.

Milton Keynes: If you let a flat or house near Milton Keynes Central station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. In the older streets around Church of Christ the Cornerstone, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

How we quote for remedial sealant

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of sealant required
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • How many areas need sealing

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Helping us quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email photos if that is easy.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Milton Keynes

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.

Why act early?

Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but rarely a lot: the work 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.

What your quote should include

  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • How long the guarantee is
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first

DIY sealant or a professional job?

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.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe
  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
  • Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler

Questions from Milton Keynes

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.

My shower still leaks after a reseal. Can you sort it?

Yes. First we check whether the leak is the sealant at all, then the joints are stripped and resealed.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we’re fully insured.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.

What happens if the problem is the tray or the plumbing?

We check for that before we reseal. If the fault is elsewhere, you will know before any work is done.

What do you put in the joint?

The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

What information do you need?

The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few photos.
