About our remedial sealant in Hardham
Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. We cut out every layer, clear the residue and degrease the surfaces, without scratching tiles, trays or frames. Only then can new sealant bond. If you are dealing with sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface and over-sealed joints coming away, we can put it right, on mouldy bath & shower sealant, shrunken worktop sealant and failed movement joints alike.
In a village or hamlet like Hardham, 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.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Find out why the sealant failed first
- Run the fan after every shower
- Deal with small splits early
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
If the joint ever needs renewing, have it cut out, not sealed over. Over-sealing is how many remedial jobs start.
A failing joint rarely gets better on its own. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into whatever is behind or below. Sorting it early limits the damage.
Your questions about remedial sealant in Hardham
Can you do remedial sealant in Hardham?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Hardham is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Hardham?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
How long should I leave it?
It depends on the product. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. Careful removal is most of a remedial job, especially on acrylic, enamel and uPVC.
Honest limits
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe
- A tray or bath that is cracked
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

What we do, step by step
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. In a small place like Hardham, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.
- You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention any tricky access

Bathrooms and kitchens in Hardham
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Schools such as St James' CofE Primary School are buildings too, and 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. If you let a flat or house near Pulborough station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

What we’re called out for in Hardham
One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. New silicone can’t stick to the old bead, so the top layer lifts and water and mould collect between the two.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Over-sealed joints coming away
If you live in an older home near St Botolph's Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
What to look for in a quote
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- The length of the guarantee
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- When the joint can take water or movement

Other services in Hardham
Different surfaces, different methods
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould that has grown into silicone doesn’t clean out for good. All of it comes out, and the joint is treated and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints often have grease and cleaning residue deep in them, so cleaning takes longer than in a bathroom.
What affects the quote in Hardham
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- The size of the job
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Any mould that needs treating
- Which sealant suits the joint
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Asking for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- The type of property
- Where the property is
