Why it’s worth doing now in Cubitt Town

Repeat failures have a cause. Finding it, whether movement, water from elsewhere or an unsuitable product, ends the cycle. Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Dealing with it early is far simpler.

Rather than a set price list, 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

  • A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
  • Over 20 years’ experience
  • Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
  • We never seal over old sealant

How we handle remedial sealant in Cubitt Town

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. If you’re dealing with sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared and black mould underneath the bead, we can help.

Much of London’s older housing is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many of them now split into flats, and bathrooms were often squeezed into small rooms. A compact bathroom that steams up every day is hard on silicone and grout, and homes in Cubitt Town are no different.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

How it works

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out in most cases. In a London area like Cubitt Town, the main things to plan are parking and access: let us know about parking, the floor we will be working on and any lift or shared entrance.

  1. First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
  2. We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on

What the job involves on each surface

Over-sealed & botched joints

A botched joint can hide two or three layers of sealant, including the smears and film on surrounding tiles. Only a clean joint will take a new bead.

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Black mould inside the bead won’t scrub out. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.

When it isn’t the sealant

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
  • Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
  • Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays

If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Homes close to Christ Church include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Letting a property close to Canary Wharf station?

DIY sealant or a professional job?

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage several properties in or around Cubitt Town, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and pictures by email help.

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together.

What affects the cost of remedial sealant

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

What we need to know

There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:

  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

Every job is quoted individually. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details and send pictures if you have them.

Common questions in Cubitt Town

Do you take on hotel work around Cubitt Town?

Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.

Do you work for landlords with property near Canary Wharf station?

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

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.

Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?

Yes. First we check whether the leak is the sealant at all, then strip and reseal the joints.

Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?

Yes. Careful removal is most of a remedial job, especially on acrylic, enamel and uPVC.

Can you take off two layers of silicone?

Yes. Both layers come out; new silicone does not bond to old silicone, which is why over-sealing fails.

What sealant do you use?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.

What if the leak isn’t the sealant?

We check for that before we reseal. If the fault is elsewhere, you will know before any work is done.
