Remedial Sealant in Hailsham
Professional remedial sealant in and around Hailsham, with every bit of old sealant taken out first and a 12-month guarantee.
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
When to call us in Hailsham
Some joints fail because water is reaching them from behind. A slow leak behind the tiles soaks the joint from the back, so the silicone goes mouldy or lets go.
The problems people generally mention when they call include:
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
If you let a flat or house near Polegate station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

Remedial sealant in Hailsham, done properly
Water on the floor does not 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 are dealing with movement joints that have split or pulled away and sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared, we can help, on failed movement joints, botched or over-sealed joints and leaking tray & enclosure joints alike.
Most bathrooms in a town like Hailsham are in family homes, used every day, where sealant and grout take a lot of daily wear. The usual signs are mould in the bead, gaps by the sink and grout that’s cracked or stained.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Hailsham homes and their sealant
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Hailsham. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around The Parish Church of Saint Mary, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Hailsham Community College, 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.
Hailsham is about 6 miles north of Eastbourne, in East Sussex. Hailsham gets the same service as everywhere we cover: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

Why deal with it now?
A joint that has failed twice will fail again unless the cause is dealt with. Taking time to find the cause, whether it’s movement, a leak or the wrong product, is what stops it happening again. Draughts from a gap round a frame, damp under a sill or water behind a bath panel all start small, and early is when they’re cheapest and quickest to sort.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Letting agents and landlords in Hailsham can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
What the job involves on each surface
Over-sealed & botched joints
A botched joint can hide two or three layers of sealant, and silicone residue is cleaned off the tiles too. New sealant needs a fully clean surface.
Movement & expansion joints
Movement joints in floors, walls and façades need a flexible sealant set to the right depth. Failed sealant is cut out, backing rod or tape is fitted and the joint resealed.
Common questions in Hailsham
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Hailsham?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
I let a flat near Polegate station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured for every job we do.
How long should I leave it?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before work begins.
Do you guarantee remedial jobs?
Yes. Our 12-month guarantee covers the work.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

When it isn’t the sealant
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
- A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Expansion joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Failed movement joints
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
What we do, step by step
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. For a job in Hailsham, we need access to where the work is and somewhere nearby to park. If the job is outside, mention gates, side access and anything above ground floor.
- We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
- Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
- Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.
Before we arrive
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Clear the area around the work
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
