- We cut out every bit of the failed or messy sealant.
- Each joint is cleaned of dust and grit, then primed if required.

- We check every joint and tell you how long each needs to cure.
How to prepare

Why it’s worth doing now in Westcot
Small cosmetic gaps can wait for the house to settle, but water getting through cannot. Not sure whether yours can wait? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few photos and we’ll tell you. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Westcot, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

When to call us in Westcot
New homes are full of moisture from plaster, screed and concrete, and it dries out over the first couple of years. As it does, timber shrinks and joints open, and sealant that can’t keep up splits.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Untidy sealant flagged on a snagging list
- Leaking shower tray seals in a new home
- Worktop and upstand sealant coming away
- Gaps between new skirting and floors
For jobs in and around Westcot, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is chosen
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Is VAT in the price?
- What insurance they hold
When something else is needed
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Deciding who is responsible under a builder’s warranty
- Movement caused by a poorly fitted tray or bath
- Cracked trays, tiles or worktops
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How the job changes by surface
Bathrooms and en suites
New-build bathrooms and en suites are where sealant fails most often. We cut out the failed bead, clean and prime, and reseal with anti-fungal sanitary silicone.
Plot handovers
We work through plots to your schedule, sealing each room ready for handover. Joints are prepared properly before sealing.
Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Wipe joints with warm soapy water
- Keep pictures and emails about snagging items
- Act quickly if a seal starts to leak
- Wait for the cure time before using a resealed shower
Clean the sealant with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive pads and strong solvents, which can damage the surface.
Mould takes hold quickly in sealant that has gaps or lifted edges. Dealing with it before it goes black keeps the job straightforward.
