Remedial sealant in Dragons Green

Remedial work is what we do when sealant has failed or been done badly. New sealant over old, smeared beads, unsuitable products and hidden mould all have to come out before the joint can be done properly. If you are dealing with a second bead peeling off the first and beads that never stuck properly, we can help.

Being in a small place like Dragons Green makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Dragons Green and across West Sussex.

The process

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out in most cases. In a small place like Dragons Green, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
  2. All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice

What affects the cost of remedial sealant

You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It takes into account:

  • How many areas need sealing
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • How easy the joints are to reach

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

What to tell us for a quote

You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

For remedial sealant in Dragons Green, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we will agree the price before any work begins.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.

Why deal with it now?

It’s easy to scratch acrylic, enamel or an uPVC frame cutting out old sealant, and any film left behind stops new sealant sticking. Careful removal is most of a remedial job. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Dragons Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first.

What you get with us

  • Colour picked to suit the job
  • Colour agreed with you before we start
  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
  • Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme

Take a look at our cost guide and customer reviews.

Different surfaces, different methods

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.

Movement & expansion joints

Some movement joints have been filled with mortar or grout. Where it can be raked out, we replace it with flexible sealant.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We are fully insured for every job we do.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.

Is it worth trying it myself?

Can I choose the sealant colour?

Generally, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we’ll agree it with you first.

Which products do you use?

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will tell you what we are using.

Do you guarantee remedial jobs?

Yes. Remedial work carries the same 12-month guarantee as all our work.

What sealant work can’t fix

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:

  • A tray or bath that’s cracked
  • Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
  • Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays

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

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

What we are called out for in Dragons Green

All sealant wears out eventually. Over the years it shrinks, hardens and gets colonised by mould, especially in damp, poorly aired rooms. At that point it has to come out.

People usually contact us after spotting one of these:

  • A second bead peeling off the first
  • Movement joints that have split or pulled away
  • Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
  • Leaks that keep coming back after resealing

Letting a property close to Billingshurst station? Then a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

What your quote should include

  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • Whether you can choose the colour

10 questions to ask before you book

What remedial sealant looks like in Dragons Green

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

In the older streets around The Church of St Mary the Virgin, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Shipley CofE Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
