Remedial sealant in Northbridge Street, done properly

Not every leak is a sealant leak. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. If that is what we find, we’ll tell you rather than reseal something that won’t fix it. If you have mould trapped under a layer of silicone and over-sealed joints coming away, we can help, whatever the surface.

Somewhere as small as Northbridge Street, 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.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Letting a property close to Robertsbridge station? Then a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

What sealant work can’t fix

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:

  • Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
  • Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we seal

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

The process

When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. For a village or hamlet like Northbridge Street, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
  2. All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
  3. Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
  5. Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Advice

DIY sealant or a professional job?

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Common problems we fix in Northbridge Street

Joint depth matters. Sealant packed too deep, or stuck to the back of the joint as well as the sides, can’t stretch, so it tears when the joint moves. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it.

People usually contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
  • Black mould underneath the bead
  • Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
  • Over-sealed joints coming away

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Salehurst Church of England Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

How to choose a mastic man

Keeping the joints in good condition

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:

  • Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
  • Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
  • Run the fan after every shower
  • Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead

Leave the new joint to cure fully before it gets wet or moves: generally around 24 hours, or as long as we advise.

Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into floors, walls or ceilings. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.

Landlord and commercial work in Northbridge Street

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll quote.

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

What the job involves on each surface

Windows & doors

Some leaks around windows come from the wall or the window itself. We check the joint and tell you if it looks to be something else.

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Where mould keeps coming back, ventilation is usually part of the cause. We’ll reseal and tell you if extraction looks to be the issue.

Questions from Northbridge Street

Do you work for landlords with property near Robertsbridge station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Northbridge Street?

Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.

Can you reseal a split movement joint?

Yes. Where mortar or filler has been used instead of sealant, it’s removed where it can be, and reseal with a flexible product.

How long does the work take?

Allow a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. You’ll know the timing when we quote.

Does someone need to be in?

It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.

What do you put in the joint?

It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

Do you cover Northbridge Street?

Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

Can you remove sealant that is been put over old sealant?

Yes. Both layers come out; new silicone doesn’t bond to old silicone, which is why over-sealing fails.
