About our remedial sealant in Great Hollands
Water on the floor doesn’t always mean failed silicone. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. If that is what we find, we will tell you rather than reseal something that will not fix it. If you’re dealing with a second bead peeling off the first and black mould underneath the bead, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In and around Great Hollands, older properties sit alongside newer ones. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

How it works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. A visit to Great Hollands is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- The joint is tooled and you are told about anything else we found.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Advice
How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Do not point over movement joints
Where we’ve pointed out another fault, have it put right, or the new joint may fail again.
A failing joint rarely gets better on its own. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into floors, walls or ceilings. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.
Your questions about remedial sealant in Great Hollands
Do older homes in Great Hollands need their sealant replacing?
Often, yes: cracked, shrunken or mouldy sealant has done its job. The key is cutting all the old sealant out, as new sealant won’t bond to it.
Is Great Hollands within the area you cover?
Yes, Great Hollands is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
What does remedial sealant cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.
What if the leak is not the sealant?
In that case, we tell you what we’ve found. You may need a plumber or bathroom fitter.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured.
What affects the quote in Great Hollands
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Whether the work is at height
- The product the joint needs
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- If someone has resealed it before
- Whether it’s a home or a business
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job, and photos are welcome.
Remedial sealant in Great Hollands: 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. Great Hollands is part of Bracknell, one of the post-war new towns. Many homes date from the post-war decades, so bathrooms and kitchens may be on their second or third set of sealant. New sealant will not stick to old, so the old layers have to come out first.
If you let a flat or house near Bracknell station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. If you live in an older home near St Michael and St Mary Magdalene's Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Schools such as Great Hollands Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What happens if it’s left?
Adding more sealant is the usual quick fix, and it rarely works. It can’t bond to what’s underneath, leaving the leak in place and one more layer to cut out later. In an older home around Great Hollands, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll talk you through it.
