Remedial sealant in Ceann Loch Gilb, done properly
Remedial work is what we do when sealant has failed or been done badly. Silicone laid over silicone, smears across tiles, the wrong product in a moving joint or mould trapped underneath all have to come out. Common call-outs are for kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop and black mould underneath the bead, across failed movement joints, expansion joints and shrunken worktop sealant.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses. Older buildings can move a little, and that shows first in cracked grout and split sealant.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

How it works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere like Ceann Loch Gilb may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
How to prepare
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Landlord and commercial work in Ceann Loch Gilb
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Do you need remedial sealant in Ceann Loch Gilb?
Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, so it starts lifting sooner than it should.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Over-sealed joints coming away
Managing a site like Lochgilphead High School? Then 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.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

What remedial sealant looks like in Ceann Loch Gilb
Ceann Loch Gilb 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. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.
In and around Ceann Loch Gilb, as anywhere, good remedial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

How the job changes by surface
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints often have grease and cleaning residue deep in them, so we spend extra time cleaning.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Black mould inside the bead will not scrub out. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried ahead of a new anti-fungal bead.
