FAQs for Mortimer West End
Can you do remedial sealant in Mortimer West End?

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Mortimer station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
How long before the joint can be used?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We will give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How much does remedial sealant cost in Mortimer West End?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Does remedial work come with a guarantee?
Yes. Every job comes with our one-year guarantee.
When to call us in Mortimer West End
Using the wrong product is a common cause: acrylic caulk in a wet area, a general-purpose sealant on a moving joint, or an acetoxy silicone on natural stone or some metals. Each fails in its own way.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
For landlords with property near Mortimer station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.
What your quote should include
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What happens if the job turns out different
- How long the guarantee is
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
How the job changes by surface
Worktops & kitchens
Old kitchen sealant pulls back from the wall over time. It’s cut out, degreased and resealed colour-matched to the worktop.
Windows & doors
Failed frame mastic is often hard, cracked and in several layers. All of it is cut out and the frame and wall cleaned.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
- Run the fan after every shower
- Do not point over movement joints
Watch the joint over the first few weeks, particularly where the original failure was caused by movement. If anything changes, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Mould trapped under over-sealed joints spreads unseen. By the time it shows through, the joint is well past saving.
DIY versus a professional finish
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 does not work out, we can still put it right.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
What happens on the day
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere like Mortimer West End 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.
- We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Tell us if parking is tricky
