About our remedial sealant in Charlwood

Two decades of sealant work means we recognise most failures quickly. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and remedial work carries our one-year guarantee. If you’re dealing with beads that never stuck properly and products that weren’t meant for the joint, we can help, on mouldy bath & shower sealant, shrunken worktop sealant and failed movement joints alike.

Around Charlwood, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

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

Honest limits

We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:

  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe
  • Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we seal

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

How the visit works

There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Somewhere as small as Charlwood, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  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. You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.

How to prepare

  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Mention any tricky access

DIY sealant or a professional job?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.

Why deal with it now?

Hidden water does the most damage: soaked floorboards, ceiling stains below and blown plaster. Dealing with the joint now is a small job by comparison. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Charlwood, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

What you get with us

  • Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
  • Domestic, commercial and hotel work
  • Every job guaranteed for a year
  • Full insurance on every job

Take a look at what affects the cost or what customers say.

What affects the cost of remedial sealant

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Helping us quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs

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.

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

Remedial sealant in Charlwood: local notes

There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Charlwood. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Schools such as Charlwood Village Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near Church of St Nicholas, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Signs you need remedial sealant in Charlwood

Even good sealant ages. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks, especially in damp, poorly aired rooms. At that point it has to come out.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Beads that never stuck properly
  • Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
  • Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
  • Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower

If you let a flat or house near Ifield station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.
