Remedial sealant & repairs in Eastrop, Hampshire
Problem with your failed sealant joints in Eastrop? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Black mould underneath the bead
Common problems we fix in Eastrop
Joints that move need sealant that can stretch. Flexing baths, rocking trays and building movement joints will split a rigid or thin bead.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Remedial sealant in Eastrop
Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. Every layer is cut out, the residue cleaned off and the joint degreased, taking care not to scratch the surfaces around it. Only then can new sealant bond. Typical jobs include thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles and gaps opening along the back of the worktop, across shrunken worktop sealant, botched or over-sealed joints and failed movement joints.
In a smaller place like Eastrop, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, some older and some much newer. Bathrooms and kitchens here get the same daily wear as anywhere, and the sealant and grout show it first.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Common questions in Eastrop
Do you cover smaller places like Eastrop?
Yes, Eastrop is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you take on hotel work around Eastrop?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
Can you match the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll explain which colours are available.
Do the sealants smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?
The number of joints and layers decides it. We’ll tell you before work begins.
Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?
Yes. Stripping layered sealant takes longer than a normal reseal, but it’s what makes the new bead last.
Surface by surface
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.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould often spreads under the bead as well as through it. We treat the exposed joint once the bead is out so the new sealant starts clean.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Do not point over movement joints
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.
Mould under a second layer of sealant keeps growing out of sight. By the time it shows through, the joint is well past saving.
What we do, step by step
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied from start to finish. For a job in Eastrop, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.
- You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Remedial sealant in Eastrop: local notes

Eastrop has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
Schools such as The Costello School are buildings too, and 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. Rented homes near Basingstoke station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

Why deal with it now?
Leaks that are left keep doing damage out of sight: soaked floorboards, ceiling stains below and blown plaster. Dealing with the joint now is a small job by comparison. Around Eastrop, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
