About our remedial sealant in Bredgar

Getting old sealant out properly is slow, careful work. Every layer is cut out, the residue cleaned off and the joint degreased, taking care not to scratch the surfaces around it. Only then can new sealant bond. If you’re dealing with torn expansion joints and black mould underneath the bead, we can help, whatever the surface.

Somewhere as small as Bredgar, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Bredgar, several properties can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.

What happens on the day

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out, and the area is left clean. In a small place like Bredgar, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
  2. Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
  3. We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
  5. We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Clear the area around the work

Signs you need remedial sealant in Bredgar

Movement tears sealant that is not designed for it. A bath that flexes, a tray that rocks or a building joint that opens and closes split any bead that’s too stiff or too thin.

The problems people normally mention when they call are:

  • Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
  • Beads that never stuck properly
  • Torn expansion joints
  • Products that weren’t meant for the joint

In the older streets around Church of St John the Baptist, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Our hiring checklist

DIY sealant or a professional job?

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 fails, we can still redo it.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

Why deal with it now?

Ripping out a bathroom isn’t normally needed. When the fittings are sound, stripping and resealing the joints is often enough. Where something else has failed, you will hear it from us. In a small place like Bredgar, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Why us?

  • ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • Colour picked to suit the job
  • Colour agreed with you before we start
  • Old sealant always removed completely

Bathrooms and kitchens in Bredgar

What the job involves on each surface

Leaking trays & enclosures

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

Movement & expansion joints

A movement joint must be able to stretch. We remove the failed sealant, fit backing and reseal with a low-modulus product.

Bredgar questions

Do you work for landlords with property near Sittingbourne station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.

Is Bredgar in your area for remedial sealant?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Bredgar is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.

What sealant do you use?

The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

How long does the work take?

A little longer than a standard reseal. Most jobs take a few hours.

What if resealing won’t fix my leak?

In that case, we tell you what we’ve found. A plumber or fitter may be needed before any new sealant goes on.

Is it worth trying it myself?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

Can you remove sealant that is been put over old sealant?

Yes. Both layers come out; over-sealing fails because silicone won’t bond to silicone.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient.
