About our remedial sealant in Chapel Row

If a joint has been resealed and is leaking again, it’s worth a proper look. Send photos when you ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email, along with when it was last resealed. Typical jobs include movement joints that have split or pulled away and smears and lumps from a botched reseal, across mouldy bath & shower sealant, failed movement joints and expansion joints.

Around Chapel Row, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What we do, step by step

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied, depending on how much there is to do. Somewhere like Chapel Row needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Let us know about parking restrictions

Advice

Questions from Chapel Row

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Pevensey Bay station?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

Can you do remedial sealant in Chapel Row?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Chapel Row is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.

Can failed expansion joints be resealed?

Yes. Backing sets the depth and stops the sealant sticking to the back, which lets it stretch.

How long does remedial resealing take?

The number of joints and layers decides it. We will tell you before we start.

Is it messy?

No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?

Yes. Repeat leaks usually come from over-sealing, movement or water getting in elsewhere, so we find that first.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.

Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?

Yes. We take our time over removal, particularly on softer surfaces like acrylic.

Why it’s worth doing now in Chapel Row

Adding more sealant is the usual quick fix, and it rarely works. It can’t bond to what’s underneath, so the leak carries on and there’s now more to remove. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Chapel Row, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Why book with us

  • We agree the colour with you first
  • Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
  • A 12-month guarantee on all work
  • Homes, businesses and hotels

DIY versus a professional finish

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

What remedial sealant looks like in Chapel Row

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Letting a property close to Pevensey Bay station? Then botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

How the job changes by surface

Worktops & kitchens

If a worktop moves when you lean on it, the sealant will keep splitting. That needs refixing before resealing, and we will tell you if we find it.

Leaking trays & enclosures

A cracked tray, failed valve or leaking waste needs a different fix. We’ll tell you what we find.

When it is not the sealant

We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
  • Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
  • A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Do you need remedial sealant in Chapel Row?

All sealant wears out eventually. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks, faster where ventilation is poor. At that point it has to come out.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
  • Dark patches showing through the sealant
  • Over-sealed joints coming away
  • Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface

Schools such as Herstmonceux Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Before you book anyone

  • How hidden problems are handled
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • How long to leave it before use
