When something else is needed

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

  • Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Brondesbury

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 need stripping out. We work on expansion joints, shrunken worktop sealant and failed movement joints, and common reasons people get in touch are caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area and kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop.

London’s water is hard, so limescale builds up along sealant lines, in grout and on fittings. In Brondesbury, remedial sealant is as much about a room looking cared for as about keeping water out.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Common problems we fix in Brondesbury

Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, so it starts lifting sooner than it should.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Black mould underneath the bead
  • Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
  • Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
  • Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared

Brondesbury is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Before booking anyone

  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • How hidden problems are handled
  • Who turns up on the day

How to choose a mastic man

Surface by surface

Windows & doors

Frames resealed over the top end up with hard, layered mastic. We remove it all and clean back to sound surfaces.

Leaking trays & enclosures

A cracked tray, failed valve or leaking waste needs a different fix. We say so rather than reseal.

What we do, step by step

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 usually takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. In Brondesbury, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.

  1. First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
  2. All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
  3. We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
  4. We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
  5. We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.

Before we arrive

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Related advice

Why act early in Brondesbury

It’s easy to scratch acrylic, enamel or an uPVC frame cutting out old sealant, and any film left behind stops new sealant sticking. Careful removal is most of a remedial job. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Putting it right early is much less trouble.

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Why Brondesbury customers choose us

  • Old sealant always removed completely
  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

Questions from Brondesbury

I live in a flat in Brondesbury. Can a failed seal leak into the flat below?

Yes, and the first sign is often a stain on the ceiling below. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a new bead early stops it getting that far.

Is parking an issue for remedial sealant in Brondesbury?

In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly, so mention what’s available when you book.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we are fully insured.

What if the leak isn’t the sealant?

In that case, we tell you what we have found. A plumber or fitter may be needed.

Do I have to be there?

That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.

Will it make a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

What does remedial sealant cost?

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing and where.

Can I choose the sealant colour?

Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we agree the colour with you before any work starts.

Can I do it myself?

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. Everything old must be removed first.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Brondesbury homes and their sealant

London has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. Brondesbury has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.

If you look after a building such as North West London Jewish Day School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Homes close to Christ Church include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
  • Do not wait for a small gap to become a leak
  • Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
  • Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint

Give the new sealant its full cure time: follow the cure time we give you.

Mould under a second layer of sealant keeps growing out of sight. When it finally shows, the whole bead needs to come out.
