About our remedial sealant in Furze Platt

Some sealant jobs aren’t a simple reseal, because someone has already had a go. Silicone laid over silicone, smears across tiles, the wrong product in a moving joint or mould trapped underneath all need stripping out. We work on expansion joints, botched or over-sealed joints and leaking tray & enclosure joints, and people most often call us about movement joints that have split or pulled away and smears and lumps from a botched reseal.

In and around Furze Platt, older properties sit alongside newer ones. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Should I try it myself first?

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into 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.

Furze Platt homes and their sealant

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

If you live in an older home near Church of St Peter, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you look after a building such as Furze Platt Senior School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Signs you need remedial sealant in Furze Platt

One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. Silicone does not bond to silicone, so the top layer lifts and water and mould collect between the two.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
  • Beads that never stuck properly
  • Torn expansion joints
  • Over-sealed joints coming away

For landlords with property near Furze Platt station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

Aftercare tips

How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t point over movement joints
  • Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
  • Find out why the sealant failed first
  • Run the fan after every shower

Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: 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 whatever is behind or below. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.

What we do, step by step

We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. For a job in Furze Platt, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
  2. Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Related advice

Leave it or put it right?

Repeat failures have a cause. Taking time to find the cause, whether it’s movement, a leak or the wrong product, is what stops it happening again. Around Furze Platt, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
