Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Crowhurst

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 need stripping out. Common call-outs are for dark patches showing through the sealant and caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area, on leaking tray & enclosure joints, failed movement joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.

In a village or hamlet like Crowhurst, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Crowhurst questions

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Crowhurst station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Do you cover smaller places like Crowhurst?

Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?

Allow a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. We will give you a timescale when we quote.

How long should I leave it?

Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We’ll give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.

What happens if the problem is the tray or the plumbing?

That is why we look for the cause first. If we find the leak is elsewhere, we tell you before going further.

Does someone need to be in?

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Which products do you use?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we are using.

What the job involves on each surface

Windows & doors

Some leaks around windows come from the wall or the window itself. We check the joint and tell you if it looks to be something else.

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Where mould keeps coming back, ventilation is normally part of the cause. Along with resealing, we will mention if the room needs better ventilation.

For landlords and businesses

We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Crowhurst and across East Sussex. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.

Signs you need remedial sealant in Crowhurst

Some joints fail because water is reaching them from behind. A slow leak behind the tiles soaks the joint from the back, and the sealant lifts or goes mouldy from underneath.

People usually contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Black mould underneath the bead
  • A second bead peeling off the first
  • A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
  • Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area

If you look after a building such as Crowhurst CofE Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is chosen
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • What product goes in the joint
  • The length of the guarantee

What we do, step by step

When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. For a village or hamlet like Crowhurst, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
  2. Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
  3. We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
  4. Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
  5. Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Leave it or put it right?

Hidden water does the most damage: wet floors, stained ceilings and swollen worktops. By comparison, sorting the joint is quick. Older cottages and farmhouses around Crowhurst can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

What sealant work cannot fix

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It won’t solve:

  • A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • A tray or bath that is cracked

If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we seal

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

DIY versus a professional finish

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
