Remedial sealant in Barnham, done properly
If a joint fails again and again, something is causing it. Movement, the wrong product or a leak from somewhere else will beat any new bead. Finding that cause comes before any new sealant. Common call-outs are for sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted and thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles, across mouldy bath & shower sealant, leaking tray & enclosure joints and botched or over-sealed joints.
Homes around Barnham are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
The process
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out and we leave things clean and tidy. For a village or hamlet like Barnham, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- 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.
- Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Related advice
Surface by surface
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould often spreads under the bead as well as through it. Once it’s all removed, the joint is treated so the new sealant starts clean.
Over-sealed & botched joints
A thick bead smeared across tiles often hides mould or gaps. Taking it back shows what’s underneath.

What remedial sealant looks like in Barnham
Barnham is within about 3 miles of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Letting a property close to Barnham station? Then botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. If you live in an older home near The Parish Church of St Mary, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

When it isn’t the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
- Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant

- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Failed movement joints
What we are called out for in Barnham
Water from somewhere else can ruin a good seal. A leaking valve, a failed waste or cracked grout feeds water behind the bead, and the sealant lifts or goes mouldy from underneath.
The most common problems we see are:
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
If you look after a building such as Barnham Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t point over movement joints
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Clean sealant with mild products only
Do not let anyone seal over it later. Over-sealing is how many remedial jobs start, so the old bead should always come out first.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
