Remedial sealant in Wyddial

With more than 20 years’ experience, our applicators have seen most of the ways sealant can fail. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and remedial work carries our 12-month guarantee. We work on expansion joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and shrunken worktop sealant, and the jobs we see most are torn expansion joints and thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles.

Around Wyddial, 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.

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

Remedial sealant in Wyddial: local notes

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Is Wyddial in your area for remedial sealant?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Wyddial is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.

Do I need to be at home?

That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access.

How much does remedial sealant cost in Wyddial?

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Wyddial, along with the rest of our area.

What happens if the problem is the tray or the plumbing?

That’s why we look for the cause first. If we find the leak is elsewhere, we tell you before going further.

What sealant work can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A tray or bath that’s cracked
  • Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall

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

What we seal

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

How to look after the new joints

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
  • Clean sealant with mild products only
  • Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
  • Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing

Keep the room ventilated: use the extractor or open a window after showering.

Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into floors, walls or ceilings. Sorting it early limits the damage.

Do you need remedial sealant in Wyddial?

All sealant wears out eventually. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks. At that point it has to come out.

Common reasons people contact us are:

  • Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
  • Beads that never stuck properly
  • Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
  • Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • Whether VAT is included
  • What insurance they hold
  • What guarantee comes with the work

Our hiring checklist

Different surfaces, different methods

Over-sealed & botched joints

Previous removal attempts can leave scratches or gouges. We take care not to make it worse, and tell you about any damage we find.

Windows & doors

Failed frame mastic is often hard, cracked and in several layers. We remove it all and clean back to sound surfaces before backing and resealing.

The process

All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere like Wyddial needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  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

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Related advice

DIY versus a professional finish

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not 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, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
