Remedial sealant in Burdrop

What the job involves on each surface

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Black mould inside the bead will not scrub out. All of it comes out, and the joint is treated and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.

Movement & expansion joints

A movement joint must be able to stretch. Failed sealant is cut out, backing rod or tape is fitted and the joint resealed with a low-modulus product.

Remedial sealant in Burdrop

Water on the floor doesn’t always mean failed silicone. Cracked trays, leaking wastes and faulty valves often look like a sealant problem. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. If you have floor or wall movement joints that have failed and wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones, we can put it right, on leaking tray & enclosure joints, botched or over-sealed joints and failed movement joints alike.

For a small place like Burdrop, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.

All our work comes with our 12-month guarantee.

When to call us in Burdrop

Joints that move need sealant that can stretch. 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.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
  • Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
  • Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
  • Dark patches showing through the sealant

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

  • The length of the guarantee

What sealant work cannot fix

Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed

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

Surfaces we seal

  • Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Remedial sealant around Burdrop

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

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of Holy Trinity, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

What happens on the day

We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. 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 Burdrop, access is usually 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. We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

How to look after the new joints

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Clean sealant with mild products only
  • Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
  • Run the fan after every shower
  • Act on a lifting corner right away

Clean gently: no scraping, scouring pads or harsh chemicals.

If a joint has failed more than once, stop resealing it. Have someone find out why, or the next bead will go the same way.

Common questions in Burdrop

Do you cover Burdrop for remedial sealant?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Burdrop is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.

Will you come out to Burdrop?

Yes. Burdrop is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?

Yes. Residue is removed with a product suited to the surface rather than scraped hard, so the new sealant bonds cleanly.

Do you guarantee remedial jobs?

Yes. Our 12-month guarantee covers the work, and we’re ARBOMaster approved.

What does remedial sealant cost?

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels.

Can I choose the sealant colour?

Normally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we agree the colour with you before we start.

How long does remedial resealing take?

That depends on how many layers there are and how many joints. We will tell you before work begins.

What happens if it’s left?

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. Around Burdrop, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
