Remedial sealant in Tottenham

A joint that keeps letting you down needs more than another bead. It helps to have pictures when you phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. If you have worktop sealant that has shrunk and split and repeat leaks from the same joint, we can help, whatever the surface.

Much of London’s older housing is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many of them now split into flats, and bathrooms were often squeezed into small rooms. A compact bathroom that steams up every day is hard on silicone and grout.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Common problems we fix in Tottenham

Products get mixed up: caulk where it gets wet, rigid sealant where things move, or an acetoxy silicone on a surface it can mark. Each fails in its own way.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
  • Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
  • Torn expansion joints
  • Leaks that keep coming back after resealing

In the older streets around Church of St Mary the Virgin, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Common questions in Tottenham

Is parking a problem for a job in Tottenham?

It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Bruce Grove station?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.

Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?

Yes. Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off, before resealing with a single bead.

Is there any odour?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Opening a window helps.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?

Yes. Residue is removed with a product suited to the surface rather than scraped hard, so the new sealant bonds cleanly.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.

Looking after it afterwards

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:

  • Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
  • Check trays and worktops don’t move
  • Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
  • Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone

Don’t let anyone seal over it later. New silicone does not bond to old.

Do not keep resealing the same joint. Get the cause found first, or the next bead will go the same way.

Leave it or put it right?

A joint that has failed twice will fail again unless the cause is dealt with. Taking time to find the cause, whether it’s movement, a leak or the wrong product, is what stops it happening again. Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Dealing with it early is far simpler.

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What remedial sealant looks like in Tottenham

London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early. London’s water is hard, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Tottenham is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. If you look after a building such as The Mulberry Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

When something else is needed

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:

  • Movement from fittings that are not supported
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we seal

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

Can I do it myself?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.

How we quote for remedial sealant

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:

  • The number of rooms or windows
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Any working-time requirements on site

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

Helping us quote

You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:

  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • The rough size of the job

Every job is quoted individually. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job.

What we do, step by step

There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Tottenham. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.

  1. First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
  2. All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
  3. Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
  5. The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
