Remedial sealant for Ebernoe homes and businesses

DIY versus a professional finish

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Ebernoe

Remedial jobs in Ebernoe generally fall into a few patterns: over-sealed joints, hidden mould, repeat leaks and split movement joints. Each is stripped back and done again properly. Common call-outs are for leaks that keep coming back after resealing and products that weren’t meant for the joint, across shrunken worktop sealant, mouldy bath & shower sealant and expansion joints.

For a small place like Ebernoe, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Ebernoe and across West Sussex.

What affects the quote in Ebernoe

The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • How many areas need sealing

Different surfaces, different methods

Leaking trays & enclosures

A shower that leaks after resealing often has a tray that moves or an enclosure sealed on the wrong side. Both are checked before we reseal.

Worktops & kitchens

Kitchen joints hold grease and residue, so cleaning takes longer than in a bathroom.

What we do, step by step

Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Somewhere like Ebernoe needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
  2. We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
  4. Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
  5. We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.

How to prepare

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

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. In a small place like Ebernoe, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

When to call us in Ebernoe

Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, and the joint starts to come away early.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Beads that never stuck properly
  • A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
  • Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
  • Products that weren’t meant for the joint

In and around Ebernoe, as anywhere, good remedial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What to look for in a quote

Questions from Ebernoe

Will you come out to Ebernoe?

Yes. Ebernoe is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Is there a guarantee on remedial sealant in Ebernoe?

All our work, in Ebernoe and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

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

That depends on how many layers there are and how many joints. You will have a timescale before any work begins.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

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.

Can tenants book the work?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.

Does someone need to be in?

Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
