- Black mould underneath the bead
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Do not add new sealant on top of old
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
If the joint ever needs renewing, have it cut out, not sealed over. New silicone does not bond to old, so the old bead should always come out first.
Mould under a second layer of sealant keeps growing out of sight. When it finally shows, the whole bead needs to come out.
About our remedial sealant in Dullatur
The wrong product in the wrong joint will not last, however tidy it looks. We take it out and use a sealant made for that joint. If you’re dealing with floor or wall movement joints that have failed and caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area, we can help, whatever the surface.
In and around a place like Dullatur, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are generally the first signs.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

How long before the joint can be used?

Yes, with our 12-month guarantee. If we’ve pointed out another problem, getting it fixed helps the new joint last.
How long does remedial resealing take?
That depends on how many layers there are and how many joints. You’ll have a timescale before any work begins.
Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?
Yes, generally. We check it’s the sealant and not the tray, valve or waste, then strip and reseal the joints.

What else we do in Dullatur
What remedial sealant looks like in Dullatur
In Scotland, private landlords have to 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. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.
If you let a flat or house near Croy station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

Signs you need remedial sealant in Dullatur
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.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Black mould underneath the bead
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
Managing a site like Our Lady's High? Then 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.

What happens if it’s left?
Leaks that are left keep doing damage out of sight: wet floors, stained ceilings and swollen worktops. By comparison, sorting the joint is quick. In an older home around Dullatur, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.

DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
