Remedial Sealant in Hog Hatch
Remedial sealant across Hog Hatch and nearby, with every bit of old sealant taken out first.
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
Remedial sealant in Hog Hatch, done properly
In Hog Hatch, as anywhere, remedial jobs tend to look alike: over-sealed joints, hidden mould, repeat leaks and split movement joints. We strip each one back and start from scratch. We work on leaking tray & enclosure joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and botched or over-sealed joints, and people most often call us about over-sealed joints coming away and sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface.
In a smaller place like Hog Hatch, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, from older cottages to newer builds. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey.

What happens on the day
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. The job usually takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, and we explain the cure time before we leave. For a job in Hog Hatch, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- The joint is tooled and you’re told about anything else we found.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

FAQs for Hog Hatch
Do you work for landlords with property near Farnham station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Will you come out to Hog Hatch?
Yes. Hog Hatch is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Can you remove sealant that’s been put over old sealant?
Yes. We remove every layer; new silicone does not bond to old silicone, which is why over-sealing fails.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
Can failed expansion joints be resealed?
Yes. The depth is set with backing so the sealant only bonds to the two sides, which lets it stretch.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
How we quote for remedial sealant
You’ll get a clear quote before we start. It’s based on:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Whether the work is at height
- The number of rooms or windows
- Mould in or behind the old joints
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Where the property is
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
What sealant work can’t fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Movement from fittings that are not supported
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
- Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.
Where we work in Hog Hatch
- Failed movement joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Expansion joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
When to call us in Hog Hatch
Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, and the joint starts to come away early.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
Letting a property close to Farnham station? Then failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

Remedial sealant in Hog Hatch: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Hog Hatch. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
If you look after a building such as Folly Hill Infant 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. For an older house near a landmark such as St Mark the Evangelist Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
