How the job changes by surface
Leaking trays & enclosures
A cracked tray, failed valve or leaking waste needs a different fix. We say so rather than reseal.
Movement & expansion joints
A sealant stuck to the back of the joint can’t stretch. Backing stops that, letting the sealant flex between the two faces.
Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Burwash Weald
Remedial work is what we do when sealant has failed or been done badly. New sealant over old, smeared beads, unsuitable products and hidden mould all have to come out before the joint can be done properly. We work on botched or over-sealed joints, failed movement joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant, and people most often call us about sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface and smears and lumps from a botched reseal.
For a small place like Burwash Weald, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Why it’s worth doing now in Burwash Weald
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but not by much: it takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. Older cottages and farmhouses around Burwash Weald can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What you get with us
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas

Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.

Yes. Where mortar or filler has been used instead of sealant, it’s removed where it can be, and reseal with a flexible product.

What if resealing will not fix my leak?
You will hear it from us. A cracked tray, faulty valve or leaking waste needs a different trade, so we won’t pretend it will.
Remedial sealant in Burwash Weald: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around St Philip's Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. If you let a flat or house near Stonegate station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

What’s near Burwash Weald

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Do not wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
Watch the joint over the first few weeks, particularly where the original failure was caused by movement. Should anything change, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into whatever is behind or below. Sorting it early limits the damage.

Advice
Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What affects the quote in Burwash Weald
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- The number and length of the joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Whether the work is at height
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- The rough size of the job
- Whether it has been sealed before
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
