Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Hatchford End
Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. We cut out every layer, clear the residue and degrease the surfaces, taking care not to scratch the surfaces around it. New sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. Typical jobs include gaps opening along the back of the worktop and sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface, on expansion joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and failed movement joints.
Around Hatchford End, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For landlords with property near Effingham Junction station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. In and around Hatchford End, as anywhere, good remedial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Different surfaces, different methods
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould can sit behind the silicone, not just in it. Once it’s all removed, the joint is treated so the new sealant starts clean.
Windows & doors
Wrong-coloured or messy mastic can be replaced for appearance too, matched to the frame colour.
How it works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere as small as Hatchford End, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
What sealant work can’t fix
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Movement from fittings that are not supported
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
Where we work in Hatchford End

- Expansion joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Failed movement joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
What happens if it’s left?
Adding more sealant is the usual quick fix, and it rarely works. It doesn’t grip the old layer, leaving the leak in place and one more layer to cut out later. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Hatchford End, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Hatchford End: your questions answered
Can you do remedial sealant in Hatchford End?

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Effingham Junction station?

Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
How long before the joint can be used?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Do you fix expansion and movement joints?
Yes. Failed movement joints are cut out and resealed with backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes. The old bead is cut and lifted with tools that suit the surface, then clean off the residue. We point out any damage that’s already there.
Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?
Yes. We’ll take all the sealant out, look for why it failed and reseal it properly.
Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Do not add new sealant on top of old
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
Watch the joint over the first few weeks, especially if movement was the problem. Should anything change, phone 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.
