Common problems we fix in Hammer Bottom
Even good sealant ages. Over the years it shrinks, hardens and gets colonised by mould, especially in damp, poorly aired rooms. Then the only fix is removal and a new bead.
The most common problems we see are:
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
Homes close to The Parish Church of St Peter include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

How we handle remedial sealant in Hammer Bottom
A joint that keeps failing usually has a reason. A tray that moves, a worktop that isn’t fixed, the wrong sealant or water getting in elsewhere will beat any new bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. We work on leaking tray & enclosure joints, botched or over-sealed joints and expansion joints, and people most often call us about worktop sealant that has shrunk and split and over-sealed joints coming away.
Being in a small place like Hammer Bottom makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Hammer Bottom and across Surrey.

Other services in Hammer Bottom
Surface by surface
Movement & expansion joints
A movement joint must be able to stretch. We remove the failed sealant, fit backing and reseal with a low-modulus product.
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints hold grease and residue, so cleaning takes longer than in a bathroom.
Hammer Bottom homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Haslemere station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. Schools such as Woolmer Hill School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
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, then guaranteed for a year.
Why act early in Hammer Bottom
Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint doesn’t reach what’s underneath. The layers have to come out, and the joint treated and dried before resealing. In a small place like Hammer Bottom, 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 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.
Why us?
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
