Remedial sealant near Berghers Hill

Surface by surface

Over-sealed & botched joints

Thick, smeared sealant looks messy and hides problems. We strip it back so we can see the joint, then reseal neatly.

Leaking trays & enclosures

If the tray is cracked, or the leak is from the valve or waste, sealant will not fix it. We’ll tell you what we find.

Remedial sealant in Berghers Hill, done properly

Some sealant jobs aren’t a simple reseal, because someone has already had a go. New sealant over old, smeared beads, unsuitable products and hidden mould all have to come out before the joint can be done properly. Common call-outs are for black mould underneath the bead and caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area, on failed movement joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and expansion joints.

Around Berghers Hill, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. 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.

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

Do you need remedial sealant in Berghers Hill?

Even good sealant ages. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks, especially in damp, poorly aired rooms. At that point it has to come out.

The problems people generally mention when they call are:

  • Products that weren’t meant for the joint
  • Over-sealed joints coming away
  • Torn expansion joints
  • Mould trapped under a layer of silicone

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wooburn Green Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

Before booking anyone

  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • Is VAT in the price?
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • How the colour is chosen

10 questions to ask before you book

Keeping the joints in good condition

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:

  • Deal with small splits early
  • Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
  • Do not point over movement joints
  • Ask why a joint failed before redoing it

If the joint ever needs renewing, have it cut out, not sealed over. New silicone does not bond to old.

A failing joint rarely gets better on its own. Each use pushes more water behind the bead, into whatever is behind or below. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.

How the visit works

On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. Most jobs take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. In a small place like Berghers Hill, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We protect the surfaces around the joint.
  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. We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Tell us about any water getting in

What remedial sealant looks like in Berghers Hill

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

In the older streets around Church of St Paul, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For landlords with property near Bourne End station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.
