Common problems we fix in Gossops Green

Mould is the reason many people want their sealant replaced. Steamy rooms that don’t dry out keep the silicone damp for hours, and once it has grown into the bead, cleaning rarely gets it out.

Look out for these signs:

  • Cracked, shrunken or lifting silicone
  • Water getting behind the bath panel
  • Gaps between the worktop and the wall
  • A joint torn by a bath that flexes

If you look after a building such as Ifield Community College, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • What the cure time is
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • How long the guarantee is

About our bathroom resealing in Gossops Green

Sealant that’s mouldy, cracked or peeling is worth sorting before it lets water through. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a photo of the joints, and we will send you a clear quote before any work starts. Common call-outs are for lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt and black spots spreading through the bead, across baths, wet rooms and basins & vanity units.

Homes around Gossops Green range from older cottages to more recent houses. Older homes can move a little with the seasons, which is hard on tired sealant and rigid grout.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

How we quote for bathroom resealing

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:

  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The amount of work
  • The type of sealant required

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.

Helping us quote

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • Where the property is
  • The rough size of the job

Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.

How to look after the new joints

Aftercare is simple:

  • Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
  • Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
  • Dry worktop joints after washing up
  • Look for lifting corners and small gaps now and then

Mould needs damp, so keep the room aired. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.

Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Left alone, it soaks into the floor, the wall behind the tiles or the ceiling below. Resealing early stops it.

The process

We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes around two hours for one bath or shower, longer for a whole bathroom. For a job in Gossops Green, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
  2. We clean and degrease the joint and treat any mould.
  3. The joint is left to dry, and baths are filled with water first.
  4. A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
  5. Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

What bathroom resealing looks like in Gossops Green

Gossops Green is part of Crawley, one of the post-war new towns. Many homes date from the post-war decades, so bathrooms and kitchens may be on their second or third set of sealant. Sealant laid over old sealant never bonds properly, so it all has to come out. 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 an older house near a landmark such as St Peter's, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For landlords with property near Ifield station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

DIY versus a professional finish

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

Why act early in Gossops Green

Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but where mould is inside the silicone it usually comes back. Cutting it out and resealing with anti-fungal silicone is the fix that lasts. In an older home around Gossops Green, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.

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’ll know the price before we begin.

Common questions in Gossops Green

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Ifield station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

Is Gossops Green within the area you cover?

Yes, Gossops Green is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Can new silicone go straight over the old?

No, and it’s one of the main reasons reseals fail. The old joint is stripped, cleaned and resealed from scratch.

How long before the new sealant can get wet?

Silicone is touch-dry quite quickly, but it takes longer to cure. Keep water off it for around 24 hours, or as long as we advise for that product.

Are you insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured.

What do you put in the joint?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.

Will you leave a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.

Can I choose the colour of the sealant?

We can use white, clear or a colour to suit. Where the joint is on show, we match it to the surface.

When it isn’t the sealant

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • A bath or tray that moves because it isn’t properly supported
  • Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
  • Damage behind the tiles that needs a tiler

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
