Remedial sealant in East Lavington

Decorators’ caulk in a shower, bathroom silicone on a window, a rigid filler in a movement joint will not last, however tidy it looks. Out it comes, and in goes a sealant suited to the job. Common call-outs are for repeat leaks from the same joint and a second bead peeling off the first, on failed movement joints, botched or over-sealed joints and leaking tray & enclosure joints.

Around East Lavington, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

DIY versus a professional finish

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Landlords, agents and businesses in East Lavington

For anyone letting property in or around East Lavington, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each.

Why deal with it now?

Another bead over the top won’t fix a failed joint. It doesn’t grip the old layer, leaving the leak in place and one more layer to cut out later. In a small place like East Lavington, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Why book with us

  • Rated 4.9 stars on Google

How it works

At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself usually takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out, depending on the amount of work. In a small place like East Lavington, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
  2. All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
  3. Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
  5. The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

How to get a quote

Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job.

When something else is needed

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:

  • A tray or bath that’s cracked
  • Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
  • A tray or worktop that needs refixing first

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before booking.

What we seal

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

When to call us in East Lavington

All sealant wears out eventually. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks. At that point it has to come out.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Beads that never stuck properly
  • Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
  • Products that weren’t meant for the joint
  • Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split

For an older house near a landmark such as The Parish Church of St Peter, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
