How the job changes by surface

Movement & expansion joints

Joints filled with mortar, grout or rigid filler cannot move. Where it can be raked out, we replace it with flexible sealant.

Worktops & kitchens

Kitchen joints often have grease and cleaning residue deep in them, so we spend extra time cleaning before resealing.

Remedial sealant in Little Milton

The wrong product in the wrong joint fails however neatly it’s applied. We take it out and use a sealant made for that joint. Typical jobs include kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop and smears and lumps from a botched reseal, across shrunken worktop sealant, mouldy bath & shower sealant and leaking tray & enclosure joints.

Around Little Milton, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Remedial sealant around Little Milton

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. Little Milton has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St James, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Little Milton: your questions answered

Do you cover Little Milton for remedial sealant?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Little Milton is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Do you cover smaller places like Little Milton?

Yes. Little Milton is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Will there be a smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Ventilation helps.

What should I tell you?

A short description and the location. We will ask anything else we need to know.

Can you strip sealant from an acrylic tray safely?

Yes. The old bead is cut and lifted with tools that suit the surface, then clean off the residue. Any existing damage is pointed out before work begins.

Is it messy?

No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Where are you based?

We are a Crawley-based firm. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.

When it is not the sealant

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
  • Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
  • A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe

If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we seal

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

Should I try it myself first?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Common problems we fix in Little Milton

Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, and the joint starts to come away early.

The problems people usually mention when they call include:

  • Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
  • Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
  • Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
  • Floor or wall movement joints that have failed

If you look after a building such as Little Milton Church of England Primary 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.

The process

On the day, we start by going over the job with you. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work starts. The work generally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere like Little Milton needs a little journey planning: 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 find out how and where the joint has failed.
  2. We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
  3. Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
  5. We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Tell us about any water getting in
