How we quote for remedial sealant

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:

  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • Any working-time requirements on site

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before work begins.

What to tell us for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • Where the property is
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • The rough size of the job

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that is easy.

Remedial sealant in Great Haseley

Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. Every layer is cut out, the residue cleaned off and the joint degreased, taking care not to scratch the surfaces around it. New sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. If you are dealing with sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface and torn expansion joints, we can help, whatever the surface.

For a small place like Great Haseley, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

Our work is backed for twelve months, in Great Haseley and everywhere else we cover.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first

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

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

How it works

When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work starts. The work usually takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. For a village or hamlet like Great Haseley, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. 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. All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
  3. We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
  4. Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
  5. We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Mention any tricky access

Schools such as Great Milton Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

What the job involves on each surface

Leaking trays & enclosures

A cracked tray, failed valve or leaking waste needs a different fix. We will tell you what we find.

Over-sealed & botched joints

A thick bead smeared across tiles often hides mould or gaps. Taking it back shows what’s underneath, then reseal neatly.

When to call us in Great Haseley

All sealant wears out eventually. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks. Then the only fix is removal and a new bead.

The problems people generally mention when they call include:

  • Torn expansion joints
  • A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
  • Black mould underneath the bead
  • Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface

In the older streets around Church of St Peter, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Great Haseley questions

Do you cover Great Haseley for remedial sealant?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Great Haseley is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.

Do you work in hotels near Great Haseley?

Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.

Is it worth trying it myself?

Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.

Do you fix expansion and movement joints?

Yes. Failed movement joints are cut out and resealed with backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement.

Does remedial work come with a guarantee?

Yes, with our 12-month guarantee. If we’ve pointed out another problem, getting it fixed helps the new joint last.

How long does the work take?

The number of joints and layers decides it. We’ll tell you before any work starts.

How do I get a quote for remedial sealant in Great Haseley?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

Looking after it afterwards

How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
  • Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
  • Act on a lifting corner right away
  • Don’t add new sealant on top of old

Do not let anyone seal over it later. Over-sealing is how many remedial jobs start.

Movement joints that have split let water into the structure, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.

Can I do it myself?

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
