Remedial sealant in Broadwater

Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Broadwater

Movement and expansion joints fail when the sealant cannot stretch. We cut out the failed sealant and set the depth with backing, then a flexible sealant matched to the movement goes in. We work on expansion joints, failed movement joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant, and people most often call us about torn expansion joints and leaks that keep coming back after resealing.

Smaller places like Broadwater still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Whether it’s a cottage bathroom or a newer en suite, the approach is the same: old sealant or grout cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Broadwater and across West Sussex.

Signs you need remedial sealant in Broadwater

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.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Movement joints that have split or pulled away
  • Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
  • Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
  • Mould trapped under a layer of silicone

Homes close to St. Mary's Church include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Before booking anyone

  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • Are they insured?

10 questions to ask before booking

What happens if it’s left?

Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but rarely a lot: the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. Homes in smaller places like Broadwater can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

What remedial sealant looks like in Broadwater

Broadwater is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Broadwater. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.

For landlords with property near Worthing station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. If you look after a building such as Broadwater CofE 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.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.

The process

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. A visit to Broadwater is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.

  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. 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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any tricky access
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Move anything stored near the joints

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Do not wait for a small gap to become a leak
  • Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
  • Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
  • Run the fan after every shower

Where we’ve pointed out another fault, have it put right, because the new sealant can’t hold back a problem underneath.

Do not keep resealing the same joint. Get the cause found first, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.

Quotes for remedial sealant in Broadwater

For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The number and length of the joints

We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

What we need to know

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Where the job is, and your postcode

For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work before giving you a price.

Surface by surface

Worktops & kitchens

A loose worktop splits its sealant. That needs refixing before resealing, and we’ll tell you if we find it.

Windows & doors

Some leaks around windows come from the wall or the window itself. We check the joint and tell you if it looks to be something else.

When it is not the sealant

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
  • Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall

If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
