Removing failed, mouldy or leaking sealant and putting it right for Compton, backed by a 12-month guarantee. Call for a quick quote.
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
Different surfaces, different methods
Over-sealed & botched joints
Every layer has to come out, including the smears and film on surrounding tiles. Only a clean joint will take a new bead.
Leaking trays & enclosures
When failed joints are the cause, they’re all cut out and renewed, tray edges and screen profiles included.
Remedial sealant in Compton, done properly
A movement joint stops working when its sealant splits or sets hard. We cut out the failed sealant and set the depth with backing, before resealing with a flexible product suited to the movement. We are often asked to deal with movement joints that have split or pulled away and leaks that keep coming back after resealing, across failed movement joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.
Being in a small place like Compton makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Landlord and commercial work in Compton
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
- Run the fan after every shower
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
Give the new sealant its full cure time: usually around 24 hours, or as long as we advise.
If a joint has failed more than once, stop resealing it. Get the cause found first, or the next bead will go the same way.
Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Compton
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Letting a property close to Rowlands Castle station? Then a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty. For an older house near a landmark such as The Parish Church of St Mary, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. If you look after a building such as Compton and Up Marden CofE Primary School, 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.

How we quote for remedial sealant
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- How many areas need sealing
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The product the joint needs
- 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, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- If someone has resealed it before
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved before giving you a price.
What happens if it’s left?
It’s easy to scratch acrylic, enamel or an uPVC frame cutting out old sealant, and the residue left behind stops the next bead bonding. Careful removal is most of a remedial job. In a small place like Compton, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts.

How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It usually 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: 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.
- We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
- Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
