About our remedial sealant in Well Head

Some sealant jobs are not a simple reseal, because someone has already had a go. Silicone laid over silicone, smears across tiles, the wrong product in a moving joint or mould trapped underneath all have to come out. We work on botched or over-sealed joints, failed movement joints and leaking tray & enclosure joints, and people most often call us about sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface and movement joints that have split or pulled away.

Somewhere as small as Well Head, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Do you need remedial sealant in Well Head?

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.

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

  • A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
  • Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
  • Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
  • Beads that never stuck properly

Managing a site like Wingham Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Before booking anyone

  • Whether VAT is included
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • How long the guarantee is

How the visit works

On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work usually takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. For a village or hamlet like Well Head, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
  2. Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
  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’re told about anything else we found.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Remedial sealant in Well Head: local notes

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

For landlords with property near Adisham station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. For an older house near a landmark such as St Mary's Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Quotes for remedial sealant in Well Head

The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • Any mould that needs treating
  • How many areas need sealing
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Working hours on commercial sites

We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will talk you through it.

What to tell us for a quote

To make quoting easier, please include:

  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs

Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work.

Why deal with it now?

Hidden water does the most damage: wet floors, stained ceilings and swollen worktops. Dealing with the joint now is a small job by comparison. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Well Head, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

What you get with us

  • A choice of colours where the product allows
  • A sealant colour to suit the surroundings
  • 20+ years of sealant experience
  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels

Your questions about remedial sealant in Well Head

Can you do remedial sealant in Well Head?

Does remedial work come with a guarantee?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.

Will it make a mess?

We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.

Do you offer different sealant colours?

Most of the time, yes. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before we start.

Should I try DIY first?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
  • Deal with small splits early
  • Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
  • Always have old sealant cut out, not covered

Leave the new joint to cure fully before it gets wet or moves: follow the cure time we give you.

Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Each use pushes more water behind the bead, into floors, walls or ceilings. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.

Surface by surface

Leaking trays & enclosures

When failed joints are the cause, they’re all cut out and renewed, including the screen profile and tray edges.

Movement & expansion joints

Some movement joints have been filled with mortar or grout. We rake that out where it can be removed and seal with a flexible product.

Should I try it myself first?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
