Common questions in Fifield

Do you work for landlords with property near Shipton station?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Will you come out to Fifield?

Yes, Fifield is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Do you fix expansion and movement joints?

Yes. If a joint has been filled with mortar or rigid filler, we rake it out where possible, and reseal with a flexible product.

Where are you based?

Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

What does remedial sealant cost?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.

How long does the work take?

A little longer than a standard reseal. For most joints, it’s a few hours, and we confirm the time with your quote.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.

Which products do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.

Remedial sealant in Fifield

The wrong product in the wrong joint fails however neatly it’s applied. We take it out and use a sealant made for that joint. Common call-outs are for products that weren’t meant for the joint and kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop, across leaking tray & enclosure joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and shrunken worktop sealant.

Homes around Fifield are mostly 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: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

What remedial sealant looks like in Fifield

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

DIY versus a professional finish

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Common problems we fix in Fifield

Water from somewhere else can ruin a good seal. A slow leak behind the tiles soaks the joint from the back, so the silicone goes mouldy or lets go.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
  • Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
  • A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
  • Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split

Homes close to Church of St John the Baptist include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

What your quote should include

  • What the cure time is
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • How the colour is chosen
  • Whether VAT is included

Choosing a sealant specialist

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:

  • A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
  • Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
  • Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we seal

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

What we do, step by step

When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere as small as Fifield, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
  2. We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
  3. Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
  5. Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Advice

Keeping the joints in good condition

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Never seal over old silicone
  • Check trays and worktops do not move
  • Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
  • Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout

Keep the room ventilated: use the extractor or open a window after showering.

A failing joint rarely gets better on its own. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into floors, walls or ceilings. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.

Different surfaces, different methods

Leaking trays & enclosures

If the tray is cracked, or the leak is from the valve or waste, sealant will not fix it. We will tell you what we find.

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Mould that has grown into silicone does not clean out for good. All of it comes out, and the joint is treated and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.
