Remedial sealant in Brading
Remedial work is what we do when sealant has failed or been done badly. Silicone laid over silicone, smears across tiles, the wrong product in a moving joint or mould trapped underneath all have to come out. We work on mouldy bath & shower sealant, expansion joints and failed movement joints, and people most often call us about repeat leaks from the same joint and movement joints that have split or pulled away.
Somewhere as small as Brading, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Brading
Do you work for landlords with property near Brading station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you cover Brading for remedial sealant?
Yes, Brading is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will explain our choice.
How long does the work take?
It takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. You’ll know the timing when we quote.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. We take our time over removal, particularly on softer surfaces like acrylic.
Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Brading
Brading is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around St. Mary's Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Schools such as Brading Church of England Controlled Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Different surfaces, different methods
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.
Over-sealed & botched joints
Every layer has to come out, and silicone residue is cleaned off the tiles too. Only a clean joint will take a new bead.
Do you need remedial sealant in Brading?
All sealant wears out eventually. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks, faster where ventilation is poor. Then the only fix is removal and a new bead.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
If you let a flat or house near Brading station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

What affects the cost of remedial sealant
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The type of sealant required
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- Roughly how big the job is
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll explain what’s involved before giving you a price.
What happens on the day
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere like Brading 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.
- Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
- The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
- Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
