Remedial sealant in Lambs Green

What sealant work can’t fix

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
  • A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
  • Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays

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

Where we work in Lambs Green

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

How we handle remedial sealant in Lambs Green

Remedial jobs in Lambs Green normally fall into a few patterns: sealant over sealant, mould under the bead, leaks that come back and movement joints that have split. Each is stripped back and done again properly. If you’re dealing with over-sealed joints coming away and movement joints that have split or pulled away, we can help.

For a small place like Lambs Green, 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.

Do you need remedial sealant in Lambs Green?

Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, so it starts lifting sooner than it should.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
  • Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
  • Dark patches showing through the sealant
  • Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted

For an older house near a landmark such as St Mary Magdalene church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Before you book anyone

  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • Is VAT in the price?

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

For landlords and businesses

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

What the job involves on each surface

Over-sealed & botched joints

Previous removal attempts can leave scratches or gouges. We take care not to make it worse, and point out any existing damage.

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

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

What affects the cost of remedial sealant

Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:

  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • Whether the work is at height
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved

Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

What we need to know

To help us quote quickly, let us know:

  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • If someone has resealed it before

Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will come back to you with a quote.

Common questions in Lambs Green

Do you work for landlords with property near Faygate station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

Do you cover Lambs Green for remedial sealant?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Lambs Green is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.

Can failed expansion joints be resealed?

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

How long before the joint can be used?

It depends on the product and the temperature. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.

Can you strip sealant from an acrylic tray safely?

Yes. We cut and lift the old sealant with tools suited to the surface, then clean off the residue. We point out any damage that is already there.

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

Yes. Stripping layered sealant takes longer than a normal reseal, but it’s the only way the new joint will last.

The process

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied, including the tidy-up. In a small place like Lambs Green, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We protect the surfaces around the joint.
  2. The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
  3. We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
  4. Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
  5. We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.

How to prepare

  • Mention any tricky access
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
