Why it’s worth doing now in Clachamish

Leaks that are left keep doing damage out of sight: soaked floorboards, ceiling stains below and blown plaster. By comparison, sorting the joint is quick. Around Clachamish, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.

Remedial sealant in Clachamish, done properly

With more than 20 years’ experience, our applicators have seen most of the ways sealant can fail. We are fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every remedial job comes with a 12-month guarantee. We work on mouldy bath & shower sealant, failed movement joints and expansion joints, and people most often call us about torn expansion joints and kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop.

Bathrooms in smaller places like Clachamish work just as hard as those in the cities. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam still lets mould into sealant and grout.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

How to look after the new joints

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Check ceilings under showers for marks
  • Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
  • Don’t point over movement joints
  • Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts

Watch the joint over the first few weeks, particularly where the original failure was caused by movement. Should anything change, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Do not keep resealing the same joint. Get the cause found first, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.

The process

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out, including the tidy-up. Outdoor work around Clachamish depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors is not affected.

  1. We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
  2. We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
  3. We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
  4. We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
  5. Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

When to call us in Clachamish

All sealant wears out eventually. Over the years it shrinks, hardens and gets colonised by mould, especially in damp, poorly aired rooms. Then the only fix is removal and a new bead.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
  • Movement joints that have split or pulled away
  • Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
  • Mould trapped under a layer of silicone

In and around Clachamish, as anywhere, good remedial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Clachamish homes and their sealant

Clachamish is within about 1 mile of 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. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.

For jobs in and around Clachamish, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

How the job changes by surface

Windows & doors

Failed frame mastic is often hard, cracked and in several layers. All of it is cut out and the frame and wall cleaned before backing and resealing.

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Repeat mould generally points to a damp, poorly aired room. Along with resealing, we’ll mention if the room needs better ventilation.

Clachamish: your questions answered

Do you cover smaller places like Clachamish?

Yes, Clachamish is covered. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Do you cover Clachamish for remedial sealant?

Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Clachamish is part of that. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

How long before the joint can be used?

It depends on the product. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.

Do you fix expansion and movement joints?

Yes. Backing sets the depth and stops the sealant sticking to the back.

Is it worth trying it myself?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

Which products do you use?

The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

Is it messy?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses.
