When to call us in Brabourne

A lot of failed joints have been sealed over rather than replaced. Silicone does not bond to silicone, so the top layer lifts and water and mould collect between the two.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Repeat leaks from the same joint
  • Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
  • Dark patches showing through the sealant
  • Movement joints that have split or pulled away

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Brabourne Church of England Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • How long the guarantee is

About our remedial sealant in Brabourne

Water on the floor doesn’t always mean failed silicone. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. If that is what we find, we’ll tell you rather than reseal something that won’t fix it. If you’re dealing with movement joints that have split or pulled away and gaps opening along the back of the worktop, we can put it right.

Around Brabourne, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee.

Remedial sealant in Brabourne: local notes

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

For landlords with property near Westenhanger station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Honest limits

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

  • A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we seal

  • Failed movement joints
  • Expansion joints
  • Botched or over-sealed joints
  • Mouldy bath & shower sealant
  • Shrunken worktop sealant
  • Leaking tray & enclosure joints

Aftercare tips

A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:

  • Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
  • Find out why the sealant failed first
  • Clean sealant with mild products only
  • Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint

Don’t let anyone seal over it later. New silicone does not bond to old.

If a joint has failed more than once, stop resealing it. Have someone find out why, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.

How we quote for remedial sealant

  • Access and height
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out

What happens on the day

On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere like Brabourne 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. The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
  2. Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
  3. Mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
  5. We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

DIY sealant or a professional job?

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
