If a joint has been resealed and is leaking again, it’s worth a proper look. It helps to have pictures when you ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. We’re often asked to deal with over-sealed joints coming away and smears and lumps from a botched reseal, on failed movement joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and botched or over-sealed joints.

Smaller places like South Merstham still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Whether it’s a cottage bathroom or a newer en suite, the approach is the same: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.

How the visit works

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, 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. A visit to South Merstham is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. We protect the surfaces around the joint.
  2. The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
  3. The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
  4. Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
  5. You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.

How to prepare

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

When to call us in South Merstham

Using the wrong product is a common cause: acrylic caulk in a wet area, a general-purpose sealant on a moving joint, or an acetoxy silicone on natural stone or some metals. None of them last.

Common reasons people contact us are:

  • Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
  • Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
  • Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
  • Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower

Rented homes near Merstham station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

Can I do it myself?

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

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.

Why it’s worth doing now in South Merstham

A joint that has failed twice will fail again unless the cause is dealt with. Finding it, whether movement, water from elsewhere or an unsuitable product, ends the cycle. Homes in smaller places like South Merstham can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.

Combining jobs into one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.

South Merstham homes and their sealant

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Schools such as Merstham 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. For an older house near a landmark such as All Saints', timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
