Surface by surface
Leaking trays & enclosures
Repeat shower leaks often come from a tray that flexes or an enclosure sealed in the wrong place. We check both before we reseal.
Windows & doors
Failed frame mastic is often hard, cracked and in several layers. All of it is cut out and the frame and wall cleaned.
About our remedial sealant in Albourne Green
Two decades of sealant work means we recognise most failures quickly. We are fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and remedial work carries our one-year guarantee.

For a small place like Albourne Green, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What we’re called out for in Albourne Green
Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, and the joint starts to come away early.
The problems people generally mention when they call include:
- A second bead peeling off the first
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
If you look after a building such as Albourne CofE Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Do not wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Keep the room well ventilated
Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.
Movement joints that have split let water into the structure, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
What happens if it’s left?
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but not by much: it takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. Older cottages and farmhouses around Albourne Green can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Questions from Albourne Green
Do you cover Albourne Green for remedial sealant?
Yes, Albourne Green is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Hassocks station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
What if the leak isn’t the sealant?
We’ll tell you. If it’s a cracked tray, a failed valve or a leaking waste, resealing will not fix it, and we will not reseal for the sake of it.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?
Yes. Repeat leaks generally come from over-sealing, movement or water getting in elsewhere, so we find that first.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
How long does remedial resealing take?
Longer than a simple reseal, because every layer has to come out. Most jobs take a few hours, and we confirm the time with your quote.
Remedial sealant in Albourne Green: local notes
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.
Letting a property close to Hassocks station? Then a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty. If you live in an older home near The Parish Church of St Bartholomew, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
