Remedial sealant & repairs in Compton, Hampshire
Our applicators work in Compton on removing failed, mouldy or leaking sealant and putting it right. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and every job guaranteed for a year.
- Torn expansion joints
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
- Deal with small splits early
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Run the fan after every shower
Go easy on the new sealant: no scraping, scouring pads or harsh chemicals.
Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Each use pushes more water behind the bead, into whatever is behind or below. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.
Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Compton
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 need stripping out. Typical jobs include sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared and gaps opening along the back of the worktop, on expansion joints, failed movement joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.
Somewhere as small as Compton, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
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.
Compton questions
Is Compton within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is Compton in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Compton is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we’re fully insured.
Can failed expansion joints be resealed?
Yes. The depth is set with backing so the sealant only bonds to the two sides, which lets it stretch.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties at once.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
How we quote for remedial sealant
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- How much there is to do
- The product the joint needs
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The problem you’ve noticed
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you are ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. For a village or hamlet like Compton, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. 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.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- 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
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
Ask for a quote
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add pictures by email if you can.
Advice
What happens if it’s left?
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but rarely a lot: the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent. In a small place like Compton, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

How the job changes by surface
Over-sealed & botched joints
A thick bead smeared across tiles often hides mould or gaps. Taking it back shows what’s underneath, then reseal neatly.
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.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
