About our remedial sealant in Cocking Causeway
Water on the floor doesn’t always mean failed silicone. Cracked trays, leaking wastes and faulty valves often look like a sealant problem. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. We work on failed movement joints, shrunken worktop sealant and expansion joints, and common reasons people get in touch are caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area and kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop.
Somewhere as small as Cocking Causeway, 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.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Common problems we fix in Cocking Causeway
Joints that move need sealant that can stretch. A bath that flexes, a tray that rocks or a building joint that opens and closes will split a rigid or thin bead.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Black mould underneath the bead
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Mary Magdalene, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

What the job involves on each surface
Windows & doors
Smeared or badly matched mastic can be cut out and redone neatly, in a colour that suits the frame.
Movement & expansion joints
A movement joint must be able to stretch. Failed sealant is cut out, backing rod or tape is fitted and the joint resealed with a low-modulus product.
Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

What else we do in Cocking Causeway
Why it’s worth doing now in Cocking Causeway
Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint does not reach what’s underneath. The layers have to come out. Older cottages and farmhouses around Cocking Causeway can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Don’t add new sealant on top of old
- Run the fan after every shower
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
If the joint ever needs renewing, have it cut out, not sealed over. Over-sealing is how many remedial jobs start, so the old bead should always come out first.
Movement joints that have split let water into the structure, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
The process
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. For a village or hamlet like Cocking Causeway, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip 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.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- The joint is tooled and you’re told about anything else we found.
Getting ready for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
Cocking Causeway: your questions answered
Can you do remedial sealant in Cocking Causeway?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Cocking Causeway is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Cocking Causeway?
Yes. Cocking Causeway is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
My shower still leaks after a reseal. Can you sort it?
Yes. All the sealant comes out, we find out why it failed, and the joint is resealed properly.
Does remedial work come with a guarantee?
Yes, with our 12-month guarantee. If we’ve pointed out another problem, getting it fixed helps the new joint last.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We’ll suggest a colour to suit the surroundings. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
What do you put in the joint?
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.
What happens if the problem is the tray or the plumbing?
We will tell you. If it’s a cracked tray, a failed valve or a leaking waste, resealing won’t fix it, and we won’t reseal for the sake of it.
Can failed expansion joints be resealed?
Yes. Backing sets the depth and stops the sealant sticking to the back.
