Remedial sealant in Bighton, done properly
Not every leak is a sealant leak. Cracked trays, leaking wastes and faulty valves often look like a sealant problem. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. If you’re dealing with sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared and repeat leaks from the same joint, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Bighton, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Different surfaces, different methods
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Where mould keeps coming back, ventilation is usually part of the cause. We’ll reseal and tell you if extraction looks to be the issue.
Over-sealed & botched joints
A thick bead smeared across tiles often hides mould or gaps. We strip it back so we can see the joint, then reseal neatly.
Common problems we fix in Bighton
How a joint is built matters as much as the product. A bead bonded on three sides, or laid too thick, can’t flex, so it tears when the joint moves. Backing sets the depth and stops that.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

The process
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work usually takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Somewhere as small as Bighton, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.
- You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Common questions in Bighton
Is remedial sealant in Bighton guaranteed?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you cover Bighton for remedial sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Bighton is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Most of the time, yes. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. We avoid heavy scraping and use the right cleaner for each surface.
Leave it or put it right?
A joint that has failed twice will fail again unless the cause is dealt with. Taking time to find the cause, whether it’s movement, a leak or the wrong product, is what stops it happening again. In a small place like Bighton, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What affects the quote in Bighton
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The size of the job
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Roughly how big the job is
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Photos by email, if that is easy
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you are ready, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.
