How we handle remedial sealant in Shipton Green

Water on the floor doesn’t always mean failed silicone. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. We work on mouldy bath & shower sealant, botched or over-sealed joints and failed movement joints, and the jobs we see most are repeat leaks from the same joint and torn expansion joints.

For a small place like Shipton Green, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Landlord and commercial work in Shipton Green

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

How the job changes by surface

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Mould that has grown into silicone doesn’t clean out for good. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried ahead of a new anti-fungal bead.

Over-sealed & botched joints

Previous removal attempts can leave scratches or gouges. We work carefully to avoid adding to it, and tell you about any damage we find.

The process

A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It usually takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. For a village or hamlet like Shipton Green, the journey is planned in advance: 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 start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
  2. We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
  3. Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
  5. Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.

How to prepare

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice

Bathrooms and kitchens in Shipton Green

Shipton Green is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

For landlords with property near Bosham station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. For an older house near a landmark such as St Nicholas' Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Common problems we fix in Shipton Green

Even good sealant ages. Over the years it shrinks, hardens and gets colonised by mould, especially in damp, poorly aired rooms. At that point it has to come out.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Black mould underneath the bead
  • Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
  • Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
  • A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed

Schools such as Birdham CE Primary School are buildings too, and 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.

Choosing a sealant specialist

DIY versus a professional finish

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Leave it or put it right?

Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint doesn’t reach what’s underneath. Removal is the only way to get at it, and the joint treated and dried before resealing. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Shipton Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
