DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
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.
What happens on the day
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere like Bishop's Sutton needs a little journey planning: 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.
- Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

What sealant work can’t fix
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
- A tray or bath that’s cracked
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Bishop's Sutton questions
Do you take on hotel work around Bishop's Sutton?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Is Bishop's Sutton within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?
That depends on how many layers there are and how many joints. You’ll have a timescale before any work begins.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we agree the colour with you before any work starts.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Is remedial work guaranteed?
Yes. Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Remedial sealant in Bishop's Sutton: local notes
Bishop's Sutton has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. 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 an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Nicholas, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

What we are called out for in Bishop's Sutton
Water from somewhere else can ruin a good seal. A leaking valve, a failed waste or cracked grout feeds water behind the bead, so the silicone goes mouldy or lets go.
The most common problems we see are:
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
Schools such as Perins School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Before booking anyone
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Who turns up on the day
- What preparation is included
- Which colour the sealant will be

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Deal with small splits early
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Keep the room well ventilated
Clean gently: no scraping, scouring pads or harsh chemicals.
Warning signs: peeling layers, mould showing through the bead, leaks after showering or cracks in a movement joint. Any of them means it’s time for remedial work.
