About our remedial sealant in Pittendreich

A joint that keeps failing usually has a reason. Movement, the wrong product or a leak from somewhere else will beat any new bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. If you have worktop sealant that has shrunk and split and smears and lumps from a botched reseal, we can put it right, on failed movement joints, botched or over-sealed joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant alike.

For a place like Pittendreich, the job is the same as anywhere: everything old is cut out, the joints are cleaned and dried, and new sealant or grout goes in. The journey and access are simply planned in advance.

All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

Aftercare tips

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
  • Keep the room well ventilated
  • Deal with small splits early
  • Clean sealant with mild products only

If we’ve found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, or the new joint may fail again.

Warning signs: peeling layers, mould showing through the bead, leaks after showering or cracks in a movement joint. Each one is worth getting looked at.

Pittendreich homes and their sealant

In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies. Pittendreich has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.

Letting a property close to Elgin station? Then botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

Different surfaces, different methods

Movement & expansion joints

Bonding on three sides is a common reason movement joints tear. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it, letting the sealant flex between the two faces.

Windows & doors

Some leaks around windows come from the wall or the window itself. If the frame joint isn’t the cause, we will say so.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.

From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

How the visit works

When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work generally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Outside jobs in Pittendreich need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.

  1. First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
  2. Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
  3. Mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
  5. We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.

Preparing for the visit

  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Related advice

Can I do it myself?

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, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

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.

Is it worth trying it myself?

You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.

Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?

Yes. There’s usually a reason: sealant over sealant, movement or another leak, and we deal with the cause first.

Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?

Yes. We avoid heavy scraping and use the right cleaner for each surface, so the new sealant bonds cleanly.

Can you remove sealant that’s been put over old sealant?

Yes. We cut out all the layers and clean off the film, then the joint is resealed once.

Common problems we fix in Pittendreich

A lot of failed joints have been sealed over rather than replaced. New silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so the top layer lifts and water and mould collect between the two.

Look out for these signs:

  • Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
  • A second bead peeling off the first
  • Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
  • Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Elgin High School, 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.
