Hitchambury Remedial Sealant
We cover Hitchambury for removing failed, mouldy or leaking sealant and putting it right. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and every job guaranteed for a year.
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
- Black mould underneath the bead
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
For landlords and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Hitchambury
Movement and expansion joints fail when the sealant can’t stretch. The old sealant comes out and backing goes in to control the depth, before resealing with a flexible product suited to the movement. Common call-outs are for caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area and movement joints that have split or pulled away, across leaking tray & enclosure joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and expansion joints.
Homes around Hitchambury are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Hitchambury and everywhere else we cover.

Leave it or put it right?
Ripping out a bathroom is not generally needed. When the fittings are sound, stripping and resealing the joints is often enough. If they’re not, we’ll tell you. Around Hitchambury, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Surface by surface
Movement & expansion joints
Bonding on three sides is a common reason movement joints tear. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it, so the sealant grips the two sides only.
Over-sealed & botched joints
Every layer has to come out, and silicone residue is cleaned off the tiles too. Only a clean joint will take a new bead.
Common questions in Hitchambury
Do you work in hotels near Hitchambury?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
Do you work for landlords with property near Taplow station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few photos.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll explain which colours are available and agree one before we start.
Can failed expansion joints be resealed?
Yes. Where mortar or filler has been used instead of sealant, it’s removed where it can be, then the joint is sealed properly.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes. Residue is removed with a product suited to the surface rather than scraped hard, so the new sealant bonds cleanly.
What happens on the day
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere as small as Hitchambury, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- The joint is tooled and you are told about anything else we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t add new sealant on top of old
- Deal with small splits early
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
Leave the new joint to cure fully before it gets wet or moves: generally around 24 hours, or as long as we advise.
If a joint has failed more than once, stop resealing it. Have someone find out why, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.

What affects the quote in Hitchambury
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How much there is to do
- The number of rooms or windows
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Where the property is
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
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.
Hitchambury homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Hitchambury. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
If you look after a building such as St Nicolas' Church of England Combined School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

When to call us in Hitchambury
Joint depth matters. Sealant packed too deep, or stuck to the back of the joint as well as the sides, cannot stretch, and tears at the first real movement. Backing sets the depth and stops that.
Look out for these signs:
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
For landlords with property near Taplow station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.
