Remedial sealant in Wishaw
If a joint fails again and again, something is causing it. A tray that moves, a worktop that is not fixed, the wrong sealant or water getting in elsewhere will defeat even a perfect bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. If you’re dealing with a second bead peeling off the first and movement joints that have split or pulled away, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In a town like Wishaw, stone-built older streets normally sit alongside harled houses and newer estates. Whatever the age of the house, sealant and grout wear out in the end.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What happens if it’s left?
Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but rarely a lot: the work takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. Scottish weather finds any gap, and in a town like Wishaw, failed outside joints soon let damp into walls. Indoors, failed sealant lets water into floors and ceilings.
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

When to call us in Wishaw
Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, and the joint starts to come away early.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Aidan's High School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.
My shower still leaks after a reseal. Can you sort it?
Yes. All the sealant comes out, we find out why it failed, and the joint is resealed properly.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?
Yes. We cut out all the layers and clean off the film, then the joint is resealed once.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we’re fully insured.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple:
- Act on a lifting corner straight away
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
- Keep the room well ventilated
- Don’t point over movement joints
Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.
Don’t keep resealing the same joint. Have someone find out why, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.
Wishaw homes and their sealant
In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that does not dry out.
If you live in an older home near Old Parish Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Letting a property close to Wishaw station? Then a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
