Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Hammerpot
Not every leak is a sealant leak. Cracked trays, leaking wastes and faulty valves often look like a sealant problem. If that’s what we find, we’ll tell you rather than reseal something that will not fix it. If you have dark patches showing through the sealant and thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles, we can put it right, on expansion joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and botched or over-sealed joints alike.
In a village or hamlet like Hammerpot, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How we quote for remedial sealant
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether the work is at height
- The size of the job
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- The rough size of the job
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Whether it has been sealed before
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email pictures if that’s easy.
Remedial sealant around Hammerpot
Hammerpot is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Margaret, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Margaret's CofE 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.

What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
- Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
- A tray or bath that’s cracked
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Expansion joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Failed movement joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
Why act early in Hammerpot
Leaks that are left keep doing damage out of sight: wet floors, stained ceilings and swollen worktops. Dealing with the joint now is a small job by comparison. Around Hammerpot, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

How the job changes by surface
Over-sealed & botched joints
Thick, smeared sealant looks messy and hides problems. We strip it back so we can see the joint, and then we reseal it neatly.
Leaking trays & enclosures
Where the joints are the problem, every bead is stripped and resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tray edges and screen profiles included.

Common problems we fix in Hammerpot
Even good sealant ages. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks, faster where ventilation is poor. Then the only fix is removal and a new bead.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Black mould underneath the bead
Letting a property close to Angmering station? Then failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is
- Is VAT in the price?
- How the colour is chosen
- What happens if the job turns out different
DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Somewhere as small as Hammerpot, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- 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.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
How to prepare
- Mention any tricky access
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
