The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, depending on the amount of work. Somewhere as small as Drayton, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

How we handle remedial sealant in Drayton
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. We work on leaking tray & enclosure joints, expansion joints and failed movement joints, and common reasons people get in touch are kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop and leaks that keep coming back after resealing.
Around Drayton, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

What affects the quote in Drayton
You will get a clear quote before any work starts. It takes into account:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How many areas need sealing
- The product the joint needs
- The number and length of the joints
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where and its rough size. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we will take it from there.

Drayton homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Rented homes near Petersfield station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty. Managing a site like East Meon Church of England Controlled Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Why act early in Drayton
Mould under a bead can’t be reached by cleaning. Removal is the only way to get at it. In a small place like Drayton, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Why book with us
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- 20+ years of sealant experience

Do you offer different sealant colours?
In most cases you can choose. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before any work starts.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Different surfaces, different methods
Leaking trays & enclosures
Repeat shower leaks often come from a tray that flexes or an enclosure sealed in the wrong place. We check both before any new sealant goes on.
Movement & expansion joints
Joints filled with mortar, grout or rigid filler cannot move. Where it can be raked out, we replace it with flexible sealant.
