Remedial sealant in Hammer, done properly

Remedial work is what we do when sealant has failed or been done badly. Silicone laid over silicone, smears across tiles, the wrong product in a moving joint or mould trapped underneath all need stripping out before the joint can be done properly. We’re often asked to deal with movement joints that have split or pulled away and thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles, across failed movement joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.

In a village or hamlet like Hammer, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Your questions about remedial sealant in Hammer

Can you do remedial sealant in Hammer?

Yes, Hammer is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.

Will you come out to Hammer?

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.

Can landlords and businesses book you?

Yes, regularly. We can quote for several properties at once, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient.

Can I do it myself?

You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

Do I have to be there?

That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.

What if resealing will not fix my leak?

You will hear it from us. A cracked tray, faulty valve or leaking waste needs a different trade, and we won’t reseal for the sake of it.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Hammer

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 St. Stephen's Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Letting a property close to Haslemere station? Then failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

Surface by surface

Over-sealed & botched joints

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

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

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

The process

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied for a typical job. Somewhere as small as Hammer, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
  2. Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
  4. Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
  5. Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hammer

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

What sealant work cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:

  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
  • A tray or worktop that needs refixing first

If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Where we work in Hammer

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

Signs you need remedial sealant in Hammer

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.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
  • Dark patches showing through the sealant
  • Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
  • Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Woolmer Hill School, 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 to look for in a quote

  • How long to leave it before use
  • Whether VAT is included
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • How long the guarantee is

Choosing a sealant specialist

Aftercare tips

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:

  • Check trays and worktops don’t move
  • Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
  • Clean sealant with mild products only
  • Don’t add new sealant on top of old

Give the new sealant its full cure time: follow the cure time we give you.

Mould trapped under over-sealed joints spreads unseen. When it finally shows, the whole bead needs to come out.
