What sealant work cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:

  • Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
  • Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler
  • A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we seal

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

Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Sellindge

Some sealant jobs are not a simple reseal, because someone has already had a go. Silicone laid over silicone, smears across tiles, the wrong product in a moving joint or mould trapped underneath all have to come out before the joint can be done properly. We’re often asked to deal with leaks that keep coming back after resealing and decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower, on mouldy bath & shower sealant, shrunken worktop sealant and expansion joints.

Somewhere as small as Sellindge, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What affects the cost of remedial sealant

Your quote is based on your job. We look at:

  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Whether the work is at height

We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What we need to know

When you call or email, these details help:

  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs

Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we will talk you through the work.

How to look after the new joints

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
  • Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
  • Clean sealant with mild products only
  • Deal with small splits early

Keep the room ventilated: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.

If a joint has failed more than once, stop resealing it. Get the cause found first, or the next bead will go the same way.

Remedial sealant in Sellindge: local notes

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Sellindge Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Letting a property close to Westenhanger station? Then a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

Can I do it myself?

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.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Surface by surface

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Mould that has grown into silicone doesn’t clean out for good. All of it comes out, and the joint is treated and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.

Over-sealed & botched joints

Botched joints sometimes have damaged edges from earlier scraping. We work carefully to avoid adding to it, and tell you about any damage we find.

Common questions in Sellindge

Do you cover Sellindge for remedial sealant?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Sellindge is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Will you come out to Sellindge?

Yes. Sellindge is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Where do you work from?

We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

What happens if the problem is the tray or the plumbing?

We will tell you. If it’s a cracked tray, a failed valve or a leaking waste, resealing won’t fix it, so we won’t pretend it will.

Which products do you use?

Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.

Can I choose the sealant colour?

Most of the time, yes. We’ll explain which colours are available.

Do you work for letting agents?

Yes. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels.

Do I need to be at home?

We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Landlord and commercial work in Sellindge

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

What we do, step by step

Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. In a small place like Sellindge, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
  2. All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
  3. Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
  5. The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any tricky access
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
