Lamport: your questions answered

Will you come out to Lamport?

Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

What guarantee comes with remedial sealant in Lamport?

All our work, in Lamport and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

What if the leak is not the sealant?

We will tell you. A cracked tray, faulty valve or leaking waste needs a different trade, and we won’t reseal for the sake of it.

Is it worth trying it myself?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

Do the sealants smell?

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.

Where do you work from?

We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

Do you fix expansion and movement joints?

Yes. The depth is set with backing so the sealant only bonds to the two sides.

Lamport homes and their sealant

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

Managing a site like Akeley Wood Senior School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

How the visit works

A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It normally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Somewhere like Lamport needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
  2. The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
  3. The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
  4. Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
  5. You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any tricky access
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that’s easy.

Advice

Why it’s worth doing now in Lamport

Hidden water does the most damage: wet floors, stained ceilings and swollen worktops. By comparison, sorting the joint is quick. In a small place like Lamport, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

Why book with us

  • Neat joints and a tidy finish
  • You choose the colour before work begins
  • Fully insured
  • Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme

Can I do it myself?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Common problems we fix in Lamport

Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, so it starts lifting sooner than it should.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Black mould underneath the bead
  • Repeat leaks from the same joint
  • A second bead peeling off the first
  • Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower

Homes close to Parish Church of St Mary include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

How to choose a mastic man

Different surfaces, different methods

Over-sealed & botched joints

Every layer has to come out, including the smears and film on surrounding tiles. Only a clean joint will take a new bead.

Movement & expansion joints

A sealant stuck to the back of the joint can’t stretch. Backing stops that, so the sealant grips the two sides only.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Aftercare is simple:

  • Find out why the sealant failed first
  • Don’t add new sealant on top of old
  • Check ceilings under showers for marks
  • Have loose fittings fixed before resealing

Watch the joint over the first few weeks, particularly where the original failure was caused by movement. Should anything change, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into whatever is behind or below. Sorting it early limits the damage.
