Remedial Sealant in Farleigh Green
Problem with your failed sealant joints in Farleigh Green? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly.
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
How we handle remedial sealant in Farleigh Green
Water on the floor does not always mean failed silicone. Cracked trays, leaking wastes and faulty valves often look like a sealant problem. If that is what we find, we’ll tell you rather than reseal something that won’t fix it. If you are dealing with floor or wall movement joints that have failed and products that weren’t meant for the joint, we can help, whatever the surface.
Being in a small place like Farleigh Green makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

What happens if it’s left?
A joint that has failed twice will fail again unless the cause is dealt with. Taking time to find the cause, whether it’s movement, a leak or the wrong product, is what stops it happening again. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Farleigh Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Can you reseal a split movement joint?
Yes. Failed movement joints are cut out and resealed with backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?
It takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. We will give you a timescale when we quote.
Is it messy?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Does remedial work come with a guarantee?
Yes. You get our 12-month guarantee.
Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?
Yes. Repeat leaks usually come from over-sealing, movement or water getting in elsewhere, and we deal with the cause first.
Common problems we fix in Farleigh Green
One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. Silicone does not bond to silicone, so the top layer lifts and water and mould collect between the two.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
Managing a site like East Farleigh Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The visit itself generally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like Farleigh Green needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
