Remedial sealant near Stonehill

Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Stonehill

With more than 20 years’ experience, our applicators have seen most of the ways sealant can fail. We’re ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and every remedial job comes with a 12-month guarantee. We work on leaking tray & enclosure joints, shrunken worktop sealant and expansion joints, and the jobs we see most are beads that never stuck properly and gaps opening along the back of the worktop.

In a village or hamlet like Stonehill, 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.

A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

What remedial sealant looks like in Stonehill

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 Salesian School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Longcross station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

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, then guaranteed for a year.

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

What affects the cost of remedial sealant

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:

  • The number and length of the joints
  • The product the joint needs
  • Access and height
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

What to tell us for a quote

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:

  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we will come back to you with a quote.

When it isn’t the sealant

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

  • Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
  • Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
  • Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we seal

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

Keeping the joints in good condition

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
  • Do not wait for a small gap to become a leak
  • Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint

Leave the new joint to cure fully before it gets wet or moves: normally around 24 hours, or as long as we advise.

Warning signs: sealant lifting at the ends, a second bead visible on top of the first, black mould under the silicone, or stains below a bathroom. Each one is worth getting looked at.

Your questions about remedial sealant in Stonehill

Do you work for landlords with property near Longcross station?

Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.

Do you cover smaller places like Stonehill?

Yes. Stonehill 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.

What if resealing will not fix my leak?

We will tell you. If it’s a cracked tray, a failed valve or a leaking waste, resealing will not fix it, and we won’t reseal for the sake of it.

Do you guarantee remedial jobs?

Yes, with our one-year guarantee. If we have pointed out another problem, getting it fixed helps the new joint last.

Can I do it myself?

That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.

How long should I leave it?

Cure times vary by product and the temperature. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.

Do I need to be at home?

It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.

Can failed expansion joints be resealed?

Yes. Backing sets the depth and stops the sealant sticking to the back, which lets it stretch.

What the job involves on each surface

Worktops & kitchens

A loose worktop splits its sealant. It needs fixing down first, and we will tell you if we find it.

Leaking trays & enclosures

If the tray is cracked, or the leak is from the valve or waste, sealant won’t fix it. We say so rather than reseal.

Do you need remedial sealant in Stonehill?

Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, and the joint starts to come away early.

The problems people generally mention when they call are:

  • Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
  • Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
  • Products that weren’t meant for the joint
  • Beads that never stuck properly

For an older house near a landmark such as Christ Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • What insurance they hold
  • Is VAT in the price?

Choosing a sealant specialist

How it works

Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. 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 Stonehill, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
  2. Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
  3. We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
  5. The joint is tooled and you are told about anything else we found.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on
