The process
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours in a single home. In a smaller place like Ottershaw, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- We look at why each joint failed, including any movement.
- We remove the failed sealant and clean the joints.
- Joints are dried and primed where the product calls for it.
- Baths are filled with water, then the new sealant is applied.
- The finished joints are checked and the cure times given.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Avoid scourers and strong chemicals on sealant
- Resist patching a failed seal with a tube from the DIY shop
- Look at the sealant regularly in the first couple of years
- Raise failed sealant with the developer while you’re covered
Keep pictures of the joints and any snagging correspondence with your builder. It’s useful if you need to raise other issues later.
The sooner you deal with untidy or cracking sealant, the less there is to put right. Small faults turn into leaks if left over time.
What happens if it’s left?
Running a new bead over the builder’s sealant might look tidy for a few weeks, but it will not bond to the old layer. A lasting seal starts with removing the old one completely. In an older home around Ottershaw, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Surface by surface
Show homes
We seal show-home bathrooms, kitchens and frames. We will plan around viewing times.
Skirting and floors
New homes often develop a gap between skirting and floor. We seal it with a flexible sealant that copes with the movement.
Common problems we fix in Ottershaw
Later trades and the final clean can damage fresh sealant. A bead disturbed before it has cured may never seal properly and it shows once the home is in use.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Gaps opening as the house dries out and settles
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Skirting joints opening in the first winter
If you’ve bought a new home near Chertsey station, the sealant around baths, showers and frames is worth checking in the first year or two.
