Common reasons people contact us include:
- Sealant work across a run of new homes
- Sealant that never bonded to the surface
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home

Ryeish Green: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Reading Green Park station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Ryeish Green within the area you cover?
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.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
Can you reseal over the builder’s sealant?
No. We always remove the existing bead, the joint cleaned and primed where needed, and a new bead applied.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we’re fully insured.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location. If we need more, we will ask.
Landlord and commercial work in Ryeish Green
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes, which need a plumber
- Disputes or warranty claims with your builder
- Structural cracks in walls or ceilings
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
- Record problems with dated pictures
- Watch for new gaps as the house dries out
- Don’t seal over failed sealant yourself
Do not stand on the bath edge or the lip of the tray. Report any movement in a bath or tray.
A seal that splits early is often a sign of movement. Getting it resealed properly, and any movement checked, stops it recurring.
Why deal with it now?
For developers, getting the sealant right first time saves return visits. Every return visit for a failed seal takes time, and they’re avoidable with good preparation. In a small place like Ryeish Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.
