What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
  • Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
  • Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we seal

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

How we handle remedial sealant in Picket Twenty

Movement and expansion joints fail when the sealant can’t stretch. The old sealant comes out and backing goes in to control the depth, then a flexible sealant matched to the movement goes in. If you have leaks that keep coming back after resealing and beads that never stuck properly, we can help.

In a village or hamlet like Picket Twenty, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.

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.

Different surfaces, different methods

Worktops & kitchens

Old kitchen sealant pulls back from the wall over time. We strip it, degrease the joint and reseal in a colour to suit.

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Mould that has grown into silicone does not clean out for good. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.

DIY versus a professional finish

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

What we are called out for in Picket Twenty

Using the wrong product is a common cause: caulk where it gets wet, rigid sealant where things move, or an acetoxy silicone on a surface it can mark. Each fails in its own way.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Black mould underneath the bead
  • A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
  • Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
  • Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface

Managing a site like Pilgrims' Cross CofE Aided Primary School? Then washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

Our hiring checklist

What affects the quote in Picket Twenty

Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:

  • Any mould that needs treating
  • The product the joint needs
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • The amount of work

What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

What to tell us for a quote

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

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Where the property is

We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job and send pictures if you have them.

How the visit works

There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
  • Clean sealant with mild products only
  • Find out why the sealant failed first
  • Never seal over old silicone

Keep the room ventilated: use the extractor or open a window after showering.

Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Each use pushes more water behind the bead, into whatever is behind or below. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.
