Remedial sealant in Chinnor
With more than 20 years’ experience, our applicators have seen most of the ways sealant can fail. We are fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and remedial work carries our one-year guarantee. We are often asked to deal with floor or wall movement joints that have failed and beads that never stuck properly, on leaking tray & enclosure joints, botched or over-sealed joints and failed movement joints.
In a smaller place like Chinnor, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, some older and some much newer. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What the job involves on each surface
Leaking trays & enclosures
If the tray is cracked, or the leak is from the valve or waste, sealant won’t fix it. We say so rather than reseal.
Windows & doors
Failed frame mastic is often hard, cracked and in several layers. All of it is cut out and the frame and wall cleaned before backing and resealing.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Keep the room well ventilated
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
Leave the new joint to cure fully before it gets wet or moves: usually around 24 hours, or as long as we advise.
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. Each one is worth getting looked at.
Chinnor homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Princes Risborough station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty. Homes close to Church of St Andrew include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Andrew's Church of England Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Can you do remedial sealant in Chinnor?
Yes, Chinnor is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?

Can you work on commercial sites?

How long should I leave it?
Cure times vary by product and the temperature. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
What if the leak isn’t the sealant?
We check for that before we reseal. If the fault is elsewhere, you’ll know before any work is done.
What sealant work can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
- A tray or bath that is cracked
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we seal
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Expansion joints
- Failed movement joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Botched or over-sealed joints
Leave it or put it right?
DIY removal often leaves scratches and a film of residue, and the residue left behind stops the next bead bonding. Careful stripping is where most of our time goes. Around Chinnor, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Instead of a standard rate, 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.

The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, depending on the size of the job. For a job in Chinnor, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
