What remedial sealant looks like in Great Shoddesden
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you let a flat or house near Grateley station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ludgershall Castle Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

Quotes for remedial sealant in Great Shoddesden
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Access and height
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The amount of work
- Which sealant suits the joint
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- The address or postcode of the job
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- If someone has resealed it before
Getting a quote is simple: let us know what needs doing and where. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.
Why deal with it now?
DIY removal often leaves scratches and a film of residue, and the residue left behind stops the next bead bonding. Careful stripping is where most of our time goes. In a small place like Great Shoddesden, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

How the job changes by surface
Windows & doors
Some leaks around windows come from the wall or the window itself. We check the joint and tell you if it looks to be something else.
Movement & expansion joints
A movement joint must be able to stretch. Failed sealant is cut out, backing rod or tape is fitted and the joint resealed with a low-modulus product.
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Don’t add new sealant on top of old
- Deal with small splits early
- Run the fan after every shower
Watch the joint over the first few weeks, especially if movement was the problem. Should anything change, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
When something else is needed
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Failed movement joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Expansion joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating. Expect the work to take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, and we explain the cure time before we leave. For a village or hamlet like Great Shoddesden, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Is Great Shoddesden within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you reseal a split movement joint?
Yes. The depth is set with backing so the sealant only bonds to the two sides.

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we are fully insured.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?
It takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. You will know the timing when we quote.
Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?
Yes. Both layers come out; over-sealing fails because silicone will not bond to silicone.
Can tenants book the work?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
