Remedial sealant in Broughton
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. If you have sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface and dark patches showing through the sealant, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Broughton, 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.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Broughton and across Hampshire.

Questions from Broughton
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Mottisfont & Dunbridge station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Broughton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
What if resealing will not fix my leak?
In that case, we tell you what we’ve found. A plumber or fitter may be needed before any new sealant goes on.
Will you leave a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.
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 will know the timing when we quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
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.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
Remedial sealant in Broughton: local notes
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Schools such as Broughton Primary School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. For landlords with property near Mottisfont & Dunbridge station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

How the job changes by surface
Windows & doors
Failed frame mastic is often hard, cracked and in several layers. We remove it all and clean back to sound surfaces before backing and resealing.
Leaking trays & enclosures
Where the joints are the problem, every bead is stripped and resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, including the screen profile and tray edges.
How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Broughton, the journey is planned in advance: 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.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- 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
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
When to call us in Broughton
One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. Silicone doesn’t bond to silicone, so the new layer peels, and damp and mould settle between them.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Black mould underneath the bead
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary the Virgin, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
What your quote should include
- How the colour is chosen
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What insurance they hold
- Is VAT in the price?
How we quote for remedial sealant
You will get a clear quote before we start. It’s based on:
- The size of the job
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- How easy the joints are to reach
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Where the property is
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The rough size of the job
If you are in Broughton and need remedial sealant, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. Tell us what the problem is and where, and you’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.
Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
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 fails, we can still redo it.
Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Never seal over old silicone
- Don’t point over movement joints
- Don’t wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
Watch the joint over the first few weeks, especially if movement was the problem. Should anything change, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Signs to act on: sealant lifting at the ends, a second bead visible on top of the first, black mould under the silicone, or stains below a bathroom. Any of them means it’s time for remedial work.
