Remedial sealant in Loyterton, done properly

Movement and expansion joints fail when the sealant cannot stretch. We cut out the failed sealant and set the depth with backing, then a flexible sealant matched to the movement goes in. If you are dealing with kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop and smears and lumps from a botched reseal, we can put it right, on leaking tray & enclosure joints, failed movement joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant alike.

For a small place like Loyterton, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.

You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Loyterton

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.

Letting a property close to Teynham station? Then botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Peter and St Paul, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Looking after it afterwards

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Find out why the sealant failed first
  • Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
  • Never seal over old silicone
  • Do not wait for a small gap to become a leak

Keep the room ventilated: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.

A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • A tray or bath that’s cracked
  • Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we seal

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

Common problems we fix in Loyterton

Products get mixed up: acrylic caulk in a wet area, a general-purpose sealant on a moving joint, or an acetoxy silicone on natural stone or some metals. None of them last.

The problems people usually mention when they call include:

  • Black mould underneath the bead
  • Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
  • Over-sealed joints coming away
  • Products that weren’t meant for the joint

Schools such as Lynsted and Norton Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

How to choose a mastic man

Different surfaces, different methods

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Mould can sit behind the silicone, not just in it. We treat the exposed joint once the bead is out so the new sealant starts clean.

Over-sealed & botched joints

A botched joint can hide two or three layers of sealant, including the smears and film on surrounding tiles. Only a clean joint will take a new bead.

How we quote for remedial sealant

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • Whether the work is at height
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • The product the joint needs

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.

What we need to know

When you contact us, these details help:

  • The rough size of the job
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • Where the property is

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

The process

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Somewhere as small as Loyterton, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
  2. All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
  3. We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
  4. Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
  5. The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
