Remedial sealant & repairs in Boarhunt, Hampshire
Removing failed, mouldy or leaking sealant and putting it right for homes and businesses in Boarhunt and across Hampshire. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
Leave it or put it right?
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but not by much: it takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent. In a small place like Boarhunt, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Why book with us
- Full insurance on every job
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- We never seal over old sealant
- A sealant colour to suit the surroundings

Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Boarhunt
A joint that keeps letting you down needs more than another bead. It helps to have pictures when you call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email, along with when it was last resealed. If you have sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted and a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Homes around Boarhunt 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.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

Common questions in Boarhunt
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Portchester station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Do you cover Boarhunt for remedial sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Boarhunt is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Is remedial work guaranteed?
Yes. Our 12-month guarantee covers the work, and we are ARBOMaster approved.
What if the leak isn’t the sealant?
That is why we look for the cause first. If the fault is elsewhere, you’ll know before any work is done.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll explain which colours are available and agree one before work begins.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
DIY versus a professional finish
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.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
Landlord and commercial work in Boarhunt
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Do you need remedial sealant in Boarhunt?
All sealant wears out eventually. Over the years it shrinks, hardens and gets colonised by mould, faster where ventilation is poor. Then the only fix is removal and a new bead.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
Homes close to Church of St Nicholas include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. In a small place like Boarhunt, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
Ask for a quote
We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Simply ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job, and photos are welcome.
Related advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Act on a lifting corner straight away
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Do not add new sealant on top of old
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
If we’ve found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, because the new sealant can’t hold back a problem underneath.
Don’t keep resealing the same joint. Get the cause found first, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.

What else we do in Boarhunt
Remedial sealant in Boarhunt: local notes
Boarhunt is within about 2 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Schools such as Cams Hill School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Portchester station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.
