How we handle remedial sealant in Worth

Getting old sealant out properly is slow, careful work. Every layer is cut out, the residue cleaned off and the joint degreased, without scratching tiles, trays or frames. New sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. Typical jobs include repeat leaks from the same joint and movement joints that have split or pulled away, on shrunken worktop sealant, failed movement joints and leaking tray & enclosure joints.

For a small place like Worth, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What remedial sealant looks like in Worth

Worth is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

Schools such as Worth Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Homes close to Church of St Peter and St Paul include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Worth is about 3 miles north-west of Deal, in Kent. Our applicators cover remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Worth and the surrounding area. Our area takes in 922 places across Kent. We also work in Chelmsford, around 50 miles away.

Signs you need remedial sealant in Worth

Joints that move need sealant that can stretch. A bath that flexes, a tray that rocks or a building joint that opens and closes will split a rigid or thin bead.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
  • A second bead peeling off the first
  • Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
  • Dark patches showing through the sealant

For landlords with property near Sandwich station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What product goes in the joint
  • Whether VAT is included
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • How long the guarantee is

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY sealant or a professional job?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

What affects the quote in Worth

There’s no set price list. What we look at:

  • Any mould that needs treating
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • The size of the job

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

What to tell us for a quote

To make quoting easier, let us know:

  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Where the property is
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • Whether it’s a home or a business

If you are in Worth and need remedial sealant, call 0345 464 0079 or email us. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we will agree the price before any work begins.

How it works

We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere as small as Worth, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We protect the surfaces around the joint.
  2. Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
  3. We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
  4. New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.
  5. We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

If you manage several properties in or around Worth, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and pictures by email help.

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

How to look after the new joints

A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:

  • Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
  • Deal with small splits early
  • Find out why the sealant failed first
  • Run the fan after every shower

Go easy on the new sealant: a mild cleaner and a soft cloth, with no blades or scourers.

A failing joint rarely gets better on its own. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into floors, walls or ceilings. Sorting it early limits the damage.

Worth: your questions answered

Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Worth?

Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.

I let a flat near Sandwich station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.

Does remedial work come with a guarantee?

Yes. You get our 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.

What does remedial sealant cost?

We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before we start.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Do you come to Worth?

Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland, and that includes Worth.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

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

Yes. Stripping layered sealant takes longer than a normal reseal, but it’s the only way the new joint will last.

Different surfaces, different methods

Leaking trays & enclosures

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

Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Black mould inside the bead won’t scrub out. All of it comes out, and the joint is treated and dried ahead of a new anti-fungal bead.
