How we handle remedial sealant in East Meon
Movement and expansion joints fail when the sealant cannot stretch. The old sealant comes out and backing goes in to control the depth, before resealing with a flexible product suited to the movement. Typical jobs include repeat leaks from the same joint and smears and lumps from a botched reseal, on leaking tray & enclosure joints, botched or over-sealed joints and expansion joints.
In a village or hamlet like East Meon, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
- Don’t wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
If we’ve found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, or the new joint may fail again.
Don’t keep resealing the same joint. Have someone find out why, or the next bead will go the same way.
Surface by surface
Worktops & kitchens
Old kitchen sealant pulls back from the wall over time. It’s cut out, degreased and resealed in a colour to suit.
Over-sealed & botched joints
Botched joints sometimes have damaged edges from earlier scraping. We work carefully to avoid adding to it, and tell you about any damage we find.
What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, and we explain the cure time before we leave. For a village or hamlet like East Meon, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Leave it or put it right?
Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but not by much: it takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. Older cottages and farmhouses around East Meon can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
