Sealant Maintenance for Landlords: What Should Be Checked?
A practical checklist for baths, showers, kitchens, tenancy changes and maintenance records.
Wet areas
Check shower trays, bath edges, basins, kitchen sinks and splashbacks for missing, split or detached sealant. Note any associated dampness or leaks.
At tenancy changes
Where access and tenancy arrangements permit, photograph visible defects and arrange suitable repairs before they cause further problems.
Keep records
Record the location, date, photographs, findings and remedial work. Set the next inspection based on use, condition and property risk, rather than assuming every seal needs annual replacement.
