Remedial sealant in Upper Burgate

Remedial sealant in Upper Burgate

Movement and expansion joints fail when the sealant can’t stretch. The old sealant comes out and backing goes in to control the depth, then a flexible sealant matched to the movement goes in. If you have caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area and movement joints that have split or pulled away, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Around Upper Burgate, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Leave it or put it right?

It’s easy to scratch acrylic, enamel or an uPVC frame cutting out old sealant, and the residue left behind stops the next bead bonding. Careful removal is most of a remedial job. Around Upper Burgate, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.

Upper Burgate: your questions answered

What guarantee comes with remedial sealant in Upper Burgate?

All our work, in Upper Burgate and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.

Is Upper Burgate within the area you cover?

Yes. Upper Burgate is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can you strip sealant from an acrylic tray safely?

Yes. Careful removal is most of a remedial job, especially on acrylic, enamel and uPVC.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.

When is the sealant fully cured?

That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you.

Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?

Yes. There’s generally a reason: sealant over sealant, movement or another leak, so we find that first.

Can failed expansion joints be resealed?

Yes. Where mortar or filler has been used instead of sealant, it’s removed where it can be, then the joint is sealed properly.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

What the job involves on each surface

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Repeat mould normally points to a damp, poorly aired room. We will reseal and tell you if extraction looks to be the issue.

Over-sealed & botched joints

Thick, smeared sealant looks messy and hides problems. Taking it back shows what’s underneath, then reseal neatly.

Landlord and commercial work in Upper Burgate

We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.

Remedial sealant in Upper Burgate: local notes

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.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Burgate School and Sixth Form, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What affects the quote in Upper Burgate

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • The product the joint needs
  • How many areas need sealing
  • The size of the job

The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

What to tell us for a quote

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

  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • Where the property is
  • What’s wrong with the joints now

For a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. We will give you a clear quote before any work starts.

When something else is needed

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
  • Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler
  • Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

How the visit works

A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. It generally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. In a small place like Upper Burgate, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Signs you need remedial sealant in Upper Burgate

A lot of failed joints have been sealed over rather than replaced. Silicone doesn’t bond to silicone, so the top layer lifts and water and mould collect between the two.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Over-sealed joints coming away
  • Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
  • Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
  • Torn expansion joints

Homes close to Woodgreen Methodist Church include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

What your quote should include

  • What guarantee comes with the work
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
