Remedial sealant near Strood Green

The process

Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere as small as Strood Green, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
  2. Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

About our remedial sealant in Strood Green

Some sealant jobs aren’t a simple reseal, because someone has already had a go. New sealant over old, smeared beads, unsuitable products and hidden mould all have to come out. If you are dealing with thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles and decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower, we can put it right.

Around Strood Green, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What we are called out for in Strood Green

A lot of failed joints have been sealed over rather than replaced. New silicone can’t stick to the old bead, so the new layer peels, and damp and mould settle between them.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
  • Over-sealed joints coming away
  • Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
  • Floor or wall movement joints that have failed

Schools such as North Downs Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Questions to ask before you book

  • The length of the guarantee
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • When the joint can take water or movement

How to choose a mastic man

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.

Leave it or put it right?

DIY removal often leaves scratches and a film of residue, and any film left behind stops new sealant sticking. Careful removal is most of a remedial job. Around Strood Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

What you get with us

  • Rated 4.9 stars on Google
  • White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
  • We agree the colour with you first
  • Tidy, careful work

Different surfaces, different methods

Leaking trays & enclosures

A cracked tray, failed valve or leaking waste needs a different fix. We say so rather than reseal.

Movement & expansion joints

Joints filled with mortar, grout or rigid filler can’t move. Where it can be raked out, we replace it with flexible sealant.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
  • Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
  • Movement from fittings that are not supported

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Where we work in Strood Green

  • Mouldy bath & shower sealant

  • Expansion joints
  • Botched or over-sealed joints

Strood Green homes and their sealant

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Rented homes near Betchworth station change hands often, and botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. For an older house near a landmark such as Christ Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Act on a lifting corner right away
  • Clean sealant with mild products only
  • Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
  • Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry

Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: use the extractor or open a window after showering.

Movement joints that have split let water into the structure, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.

FAQs for Strood Green

Do you work for landlords with property near Betchworth station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.

Will you come out to Strood Green?

Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

What sealant do you use?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.

Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?

Yes, with care. The old bead is cut and lifted with tools that suit the surface, then clean off the residue. We point out any damage that’s already there.

Can I do it myself?

It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

Do I need to be at home?

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
