Looking after it afterwards

A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:

  • Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
  • Deal with small splits early
  • Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
  • Have loose fittings fixed before resealing

Where we have pointed out another fault, have it put right, because the new sealant cannot hold back a problem underneath.

Do not keep resealing the same joint. Get the cause found first, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.

Remedial sealant in Lower Kingswood, done properly

Movement and expansion joints fail when the sealant can’t stretch. We cut out the failed sealant and set the depth with backing, before resealing with a flexible product suited to the movement. If you have caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area and a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Somewhere as small as Lower Kingswood, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Quotes for remedial sealant in Lower Kingswood

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • The product the joint needs
  • Access and height

We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.

Helping us quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. Whenever you are ready, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Leave it or put it right?

Another bead over the top will not fix a failed joint. It cannot bond to what’s underneath, so the leak carries on and there’s now more to remove. Around Lower Kingswood, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Why us?

  • We’re fully insured
  • Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas

What remedial sealant looks like in Lower Kingswood

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Kingswood Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Kingswood station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

When to call us in Lower Kingswood

How a joint is built matters as much as the product. Sealant packed too deep, or stuck to the back of the joint as well as the sides, cannot stretch, and tears at the first real movement. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
  • Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
  • Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
  • Movement joints that have split or pulled away

In the older streets around Church of Jesus Christ and the Wisdom of God, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

The process

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It usually takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. In a small place like Lower Kingswood, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We protect the surfaces around the joint.
  2. The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
  3. The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
  4. New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.
  5. You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any tricky access
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Can I do it myself?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
