About our remedial sealant in Farnborough
Decorators’ caulk in a shower, bathroom silicone on a window, a rigid filler in a movement joint fails however neatly it’s applied. We take it out and use a sealant made for that joint. Typical jobs include worktop sealant that has shrunk and split and floor or wall movement joints that have failed, on expansion joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.
Most bathrooms in a town like Farnborough are in family homes, used every day, which is hard on sealant and grout. The usual signs are mould in the bead, gaps by the sink and grout that’s cracked or stained.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Farnborough homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Schools such as Tower Hill Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Homes close to Church of St Christopher include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

What we’re called out for in Farnborough
Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, so it starts lifting sooner than it should.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
If you let a flat or house near Farnborough Main station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.
Before booking anyone
- Whether you can choose the colour
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether they’re fully insured
Landlords, agents and businesses in Farnborough
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
What happens on the day
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. A visit in Farnborough needs access to the work and a place to park close by. If the job is outside, mention gates, side access and anything above ground floor.
- 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.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Advice
Farnborough: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Farnborough Main station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Is remedial sealant in Farnborough guaranteed?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Will there be a smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Should I try DIY first?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
How much does remedial sealant cost in Farnborough?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.
Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?
Yes, generally. We check it’s the sealant and not the tray, valve or waste, then strip and reseal the joints.
Can you strip sealant from an acrylic tray safely?
Yes. Residue is removed with a product suited to the surface rather than scraped hard.
Why act early in Farnborough
A failed seal rarely means a new bathroom. If the bath, tray and tiles are sound, remedial resealing normally puts it right. If they’re not, we’ll tell you. Around Farnborough, failed sealant lets water into hidden places, like the floor under a bath, the back of a panel or the inside of a wall. Whatever the joint, failed sealant only gets worse.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
What you get with us
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels

How we quote for remedial sealant
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- The product the joint needs
- Any mould that needs treating
- Whether the work is at height
- The size of the job
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The type of property
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Don’t point over movement joints
- Find out why the sealant failed first
- Act on a lifting corner straight away
Give the new sealant its full cure time: follow the cure time we give you.
Mould trapped under over-sealed joints spreads unseen. By the time it shows through, the joint is well past saving.
Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
If you’re 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.
