Remedial sealant in Arborfield Garrison: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For landlords with property near Wokingham station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty. In the older streets around St Eligius, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Bohunt School Wokingham, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Arborfield Garrison
Two decades of sealant work means we recognise most failures quickly. We are ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and every remedial job comes with a 12-month guarantee. Typical jobs include worktop sealant that has shrunk and split and thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles, on failed movement joints, expansion joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.
In a smaller place like Arborfield Garrison, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, some older and some much newer. Bathrooms and kitchens here get the same daily wear as anywhere, and the sealant and grout show it first.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Surface by surface
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould that has grown into silicone doesn’t clean out for good. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.
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 before backing and resealing.

Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll explain which colours are available and agree one before we start.

When it is not the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
- A tray or bath that is cracked
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Expansion joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints

DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Landlord and commercial work in Arborfield Garrison
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can be quoted together.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It generally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Parking around Arborfield Garrison is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Move anything stored near the joints

Advice
Leave it or put it right?
Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint doesn’t reach what’s underneath. The layers have to come out, and the joint treated and dried before resealing. In an older home around Arborfield Garrison, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
