Remedial sealant for Goose Hill homes and businesses

Remedial sealant in Goose Hill, done properly

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. We’re often asked to deal with decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower and sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface, on shrunken worktop sealant, expansion joints and botched or over-sealed joints.

Homes around Goose Hill 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: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

Do you need remedial sealant in Goose Hill?

Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, and the joint starts to come away early.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
  • Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
  • Movement joints that have split or pulled away
  • Gaps opening along the back of the worktop

For landlords with property near Thatcham station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

Before you book anyone

  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • What product goes in the joint

10 questions to ask before you book

For landlords and businesses

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can go on one quote.

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

FAQs for Goose Hill

Do you cover Goose Hill for remedial sealant?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Goose Hill is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.

Is Goose Hill within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

How do I get a quote for remedial sealant in Goose Hill?

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.

My shower still leaks after a reseal. Can you sort it?

Yes, normally. First we check whether the leak is the sealant at all, then strip and reseal the joints.

Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?

Yes. It’s slower than a standard reseal, because every layer has to come out cleanly, but it’s what makes the new bead last.

How long does the work take?

That depends on how many layers there are and how many joints. We will tell you before work begins.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we’re fully insured too.

Does someone need to be in?

It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.

What happens if it’s left?

DIY removal often leaves scratches and a film of residue, and the residue left behind stops the next bead bonding. Careful removal is most of a remedial job. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Goose Hill, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

What we do, step by step

At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself usually takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out, depending on how much there is to do. In a small place like Goose Hill, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
  2. Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
  3. We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
  5. The joint is tooled and you are told about anything else we found.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Clear the area around the work

Goose Hill homes and their sealant

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Homes close to Church of St Paul include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ashford Hill Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What the job involves on each surface

Movement & expansion joints

Joints filled with mortar, grout or rigid filler cannot move. Where it can be raked out, we replace it with flexible sealant.

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Mould often spreads under the bead as well as through it. Once it’s all removed, the joint is treated so the new sealant starts clean.
