How to look after the new joints

How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
  • Clean sealant with mild products only
  • Don’t add new sealant on top of old
  • Do not wait for a small gap to become a leak

If we have found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, because the new sealant can’t hold back a problem underneath.

Warning signs: sealant lifting at the ends, a second bead visible on top of the first, black mould under the silicone, or stains below a bathroom. Each one is worth getting looked at.

Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Muddles Green

If a joint fails again and again, something is causing it. Movement, the wrong product or a leak from somewhere else will defeat even a perfect bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. We work on botched or over-sealed joints, failed movement joints and shrunken worktop sealant, and the jobs we see most are movement joints that have split or pulled away and beads that never stuck properly.

Around Muddles Green, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Your questions about remedial sealant in Muddles Green

Can you do remedial sealant in Muddles Green?

Yes, Muddles Green is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.

Is Muddles Green within the area you cover?

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.

Do you work for letting agents?

Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do.

Can failed expansion joints be resealed?

Yes. If a joint has been filled with mortar or rigid filler, we rake it out where possible, then the joint is sealed properly.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Are you insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured.

Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?

Yes. We cut and lift the old sealant with tools suited to the surface, then clean off the residue. Any existing damage is pointed out before we start.

When it isn’t the sealant

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
  • Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we seal

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

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Muddles Green, several properties can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each.

We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

Why act early in Muddles Green

Repeat failures have a cause. Finding it, whether movement, water from elsewhere or an unsuitable product, ends the cycle. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Muddles Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Signs you need remedial sealant in Muddles Green

Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, and the joint starts to come away early.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Products that weren’t meant for the joint
  • Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
  • Dark patches showing through the sealant
  • Repeat leaks from the same joint

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

Before you book anyone

  • Is VAT in the price?
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • How much experience the applicator has

What happens on the day

On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere like Muddles Green 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. We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
  2. We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
  3. The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
  4. Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
  5. We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
