Frant Remedial Sealant
Remedial sealant across Frant and nearby, with old sealant always removed completely and a one-year guarantee.
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Over-sealed joints coming away
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Check trays and worktops do not move
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Act on a lifting corner straight away
Watch the joint over the first few weeks, particularly where the original failure was caused by movement. Should anything change, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
About our remedial sealant in Frant
Getting old sealant out properly is slow, careful work. We cut out every layer, clear the residue and degrease the surfaces, taking care not to scratch the surfaces around it. Only then can new sealant bond. Typical jobs include beads that never stuck properly and repeat leaks from the same joint, across botched or over-sealed joints, shrunken worktop sealant and mouldy bath & shower sealant.
Somewhere as small as Frant, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What happens on the day
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, and the area is left clean. Somewhere as small as Frant, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

How we quote for remedial sealant
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number and length of the joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The product the joint needs
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The type of property
- Where the job is, and your postcode
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
What happens if it’s left?
Hidden water does the most damage: wet floors, stained ceilings and swollen worktops. Dealing with the joint now is a small job by comparison. In a small place like Frant, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What you get with us
- More than 20 years in sealant work
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Full insurance on every job
- Colour picked to suit the job
Do you need remedial sealant in Frant?
Even good sealant ages. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks, faster where ventilation is poor. At that point it has to come out.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
If you live in an older home near The Parish Church of St Alban, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
What to look for in a quote
- What the cure time is
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- What insurance they hold
Surface by surface
Over-sealed & botched joints
Every layer has to come out, and silicone residue is cleaned off the tiles too. New sealant needs a fully clean surface.
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints hold grease and residue, so we spend extra time cleaning before resealing.
What remedial sealant looks like in Frant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Frant station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Frant Church of England Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
