About our remedial sealant in Hardley

A joint that keeps letting you down needs more than another bead. Send photos when you ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email, along with when it was last resealed. We’re often asked to deal with gaps opening along the back of the worktop and smears and lumps from a botched reseal, on expansion joints, botched or over-sealed joints and failed movement joints.

Being in a small place like Hardley makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

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

Signs you need remedial sealant in Hardley

Movement tears sealant that is not designed for it. A bath that flexes, a tray that rocks or a building joint that opens and closes will split a rigid or thin bead.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
  • Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
  • Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
  • Smears and lumps from a botched reseal

Managing a site like The New Forest Academy? Then 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.

  • Whether they’re fully insured

10 questions to ask before booking

What the job involves on each surface

Movement & expansion joints

A movement joint must be able to stretch. Failed sealant is cut out, backing rod or tape is fitted and the joint resealed with a low-modulus product.

Leaking trays & enclosures

A shower that leaks after resealing often has a tray that moves or an enclosure sealed on the wrong side. Both are checked before any new sealant goes on.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
  • Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
  • Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
  • Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead

Watch the joint over the first few weeks, especially if movement was the problem. Should anything change, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Signs to act on: sealant lifting at the ends, a second bead visible on top of the first, black mould under the silicone, or stains below a bathroom. Each one is worth getting looked at.

Your questions about remedial sealant in Hardley

Will you come out to Hardley?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Do you work for landlords with property near Netley station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Is it worth trying it myself?

That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

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

Yes. Repeat leaks normally come from over-sealing, movement or water getting in elsewhere, and we deal with the cause first.

What if the leak isn’t the sealant?

We check for that before we reseal. If the fault is elsewhere, you’ll know before any work is done.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses.

When is the sealant fully cured?

Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.

Do you offer different sealant colours?

Normally, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we’ll agree it with you first.

Why it’s worth doing now in Hardley

Ripping out a bathroom is not normally needed. When the fittings are sound, stripping and resealing the joints is often enough. If they’re not, we will tell you. Around Hardley, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

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. Your quote takes all of that into account.

The process

Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. For a village or hamlet like Hardley, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
  2. Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
  3. We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
  5. The joint is tooled and you’re told about anything else we found.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Hardley homes and their sealant

Hardley is within about 2 miles of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

For an older house near a landmark such as St Anne, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. For landlords with property near Netley station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

When it is not the sealant

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

  • A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
  • Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
  • A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.
