Remedial sealant around Cassington

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.

Schools such as St Peter's Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and 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. If you let a flat or house near Hanborough station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

Remedial sealant in Cassington

Remedial jobs in Cassington generally fall into a few patterns: sealant over sealant, mould under the bead, leaks that come back and movement joints that have split. We strip each one back and start from scratch. Typical jobs include black mould underneath the bead and a second bead peeling off the first, on expansion joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and botched or over-sealed joints.

Homes around Cassington are mostly 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.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

Aftercare tips

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
  • Don’t wait for a small gap to become a leak
  • Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
  • Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead

Do not let anyone seal over it later. Over-sealing is how many remedial jobs start.

Mould under a second layer of sealant keeps growing out of sight. By the time it shows through, the joint is well past saving.

When to call us in Cassington

Products get mixed up: caulk where it gets wet, rigid sealant where things move, or an acetoxy silicone on a surface it can mark. Each fails in its own way.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Black mould underneath the bead
  • Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
  • Movement joints that have split or pulled away
  • Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface

In the older streets around Church of St Peter, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cassington

Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

How the job changes by surface

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Mould often spreads under the bead as well as through it. Once it’s all removed, the joint is treated.

Leaking trays & enclosures

If the tray is cracked, or the leak is from the valve or waste, sealant won’t fix it. We’ll tell you what we find.

  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Access and height

Questions from Cassington

Do you work for landlords with property near Hanborough station?

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

Is Cassington within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.

Is it messy?

Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Do the sealants smell?

Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

Which products do you use?

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

Can I choose the sealant colour?

We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.

How the visit works

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied for a typical job. In a small place like Cassington, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Should I try it myself first?

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
