Remedial sealant in Kenton

Keeping the joints in good condition

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:

  • Act on a lifting corner straight away
  • Never seal over old silicone
  • Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
  • Ask why a joint failed before redoing it

Leave the new joint to cure fully before it gets wet or moves: follow the cure time we give you.

Warning signs: sealant lifting at the ends, a second bead visible on top of the first, black mould under the silicone, or stains below a bathroom. Any of them means it’s time for remedial work.

About our remedial sealant in Kenton

Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. We cut out every layer, clear the residue and degrease the surfaces, without scratching tiles, trays or frames. New sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. We are often asked to deal with worktop sealant that has shrunk and split and wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones, on expansion joints, failed movement joints and leaking tray & enclosure joints.

Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. For a bathroom or kitchen in Kenton, getting the joints right keeps water where it belongs and the room looking clean.

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

When to call us in Kenton

Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, and the joint starts to come away early.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
  • Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
  • Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
  • Black mould underneath the bead

Rented homes near Kenton station change hands often, and botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

How to choose a mastic man

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
  • Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.

Where we work in Kenton

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

What the job involves on each surface

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Where mould keeps coming back, ventilation is usually part of the cause. Along with resealing, we’ll mention if the room needs better ventilation.

Windows & doors

Wrong-coloured or messy mastic can be replaced for appearance too, in a colour that suits the frame.

Kenton questions

Could a tired shower seal in my Kenton flat affect the neighbours below?

It can, yes: water that gets past a split bead or cracked grout often runs under the tray and shows on the ceiling below. Replacing the sealant and grout before that happens is much less trouble than repairing a neighbour’s ceiling.

Do you work for landlords with property near Kenton station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

How much does remedial sealant cost in Kenton?

We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.

Can failed expansion joints be resealed?

Yes. If a joint has been filled with mortar or rigid filler, we rake it out where possible, then the joint is sealed properly.

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.

How long before the joint can be used?

Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We will give you the cure time for the product we used.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.

Can you match the sealant colour?

Yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we agree the colour with you before work begins.

What we do, step by step

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.

  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. Mould is treated and the joint dried.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
