Remedial sealant & repairs in Berwick, East Sussex
Removing failed, mouldy or leaking sealant and putting it right for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Berwick. ARBOMaster approved applicators, fully insured, with a one-year guarantee.
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Torn expansion joints
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
What the job involves on each surface
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould often spreads under the bead as well as through it. We treat the exposed joint once the bead is out.
Worktops & kitchens
Old kitchen sealant pulls back from the wall over time. We strip it, degrease the joint and reseal.
Remedial sealant in Berwick, done properly
Not every leak is a sealant leak. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. Typical jobs include decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower and wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones, across expansion joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and botched or over-sealed joints.
Around Berwick, it’s 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.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What else we do in Berwick
Remedial sealant around Berwick
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.
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 something else is needed

- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint

Why it’s worth doing now in Berwick
Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint doesn’t reach what’s underneath. Removal is the only way to get at it. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Berwick, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. We can quote for more than one property at once.
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.
Do you need remedial sealant in Berwick?
Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, and the joint starts to come away early.
The most common problems we see are:
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
Letting a property close to Berwick (Sussex) station? Then failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
How it works
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied from start to finish. Somewhere as small as Berwick, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Getting ready for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
