Remedial sealant & repairs in Farncombe, Surrey
Problem with your failed sealant joints in Farncombe? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, with a 12-month guarantee.
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Find out why the sealant failed first
- Don’t wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Don’t add new sealant on top of old
If we have found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, because the new sealant can’t hold back a problem underneath.
Mould under a second layer of sealant keeps growing out of sight. When it finally shows, the whole bead needs to come out.
Remedial sealant in Farncombe
Water on the floor does not always mean failed silicone. Cracked trays, leaking wastes and faulty valves often look like a sealant problem. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. Common call-outs are for worktop sealant that has shrunk and split and sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted, on expansion joints, failed movement joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.
In and around Farncombe, older properties sit alongside newer ones. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Remedial sealant in Farncombe: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Rented homes near Farncombe station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty. Homes close to St John the Evangelist Church include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

What affects the quote in Farncombe
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The product the joint needs
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Helping us quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

Different surfaces, different methods
Movement & expansion joints
Bonding on three sides is a common reason movement joints tear. Backing stops that, letting the sealant flex between the two faces.
Windows & doors
A frame that keeps leaking may not be the mastic. If the frame joint is not the cause, we’ll say so.
What happens on the day
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it generally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. For a job in Farncombe, 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 start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Related advice
When to call us in Farncombe
A lot of failed joints have been sealed over rather than replaced. New silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so the top layer lifts and water and mould collect between the two.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- A second bead peeling off the first
Managing a site like Farncombe Church of England Infant School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- The length of the guarantee
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- When the joint can take water or movement
