How the job changes by surface
Windows & doors
Wrong-coloured or messy mastic can be replaced for appearance too, matched to the frame colour.
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.
How we handle remedial sealant in Farlington
Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. We cut out every layer, clear the residue and degrease the surfaces, taking care not to scratch the surfaces around it. New sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. We are often asked to deal with leaks that keep coming back after resealing and sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared, across failed movement joints, shrunken worktop sealant and mouldy bath & shower sealant.
In and around Farlington, older properties sit alongside newer ones. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.
Every job comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Portsmouth.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

What if resealing will not fix my leak?
That is why we look for the cause first. If the fault is elsewhere, you will know before any work is done.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access.

Do you need remedial sealant in Farlington?
All sealant wears out eventually. Over the years it shrinks, hardens and gets colonised by mould, especially in damp, poorly aired rooms. Then the only fix is removal and a new bead.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Solent Infant School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Before booking anyone
- How much experience the applicator has
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What the cure time is
- What product goes in the joint
The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself usually takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, depending on the amount of work. For a job in Farlington, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since 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.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Move anything stored near the joints

Advice
Remedial sealant around Farlington
Farlington is within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Homes close to Church of St Andrew include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you let a flat or house near Cosham station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.
Farlington is about 2 miles south of Purbrook, in Portsmouth. Jobs in Farlington get the same care as everywhere else we work: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee. Across Portsmouth, we cover 19 places, Farlington among them.

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. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent. In a smaller place like Farlington, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

How we quote for remedial sealant
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- The number of rooms or windows
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Whether the work is at height
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- If someone has resealed it before
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- How we’d reach the joints
- The rough size of the job
We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
- Find out why the sealant failed first
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
Give the new sealant its full cure time: follow the cure time we give you.
Do not keep resealing the same joint. Have someone find out why, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.
