Remedial sealant & repairs in Hunton, Hampshire
Removing failed, mouldy or leaking sealant and putting it right in Hunton, with a one-year guarantee on every job. Call for a quick quote.
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Never seal over old silicone
- Keep the room well ventilated
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Check trays and worktops do not move
Give the new sealant its full cure time: generally around 24 hours, or as long as we advise.
Warning signs: sealant lifting at the ends, a second bead visible on top of the first, black mould under the silicone, or stains below a bathroom. Any of them means it’s time for remedial work.
Remedial sealant in Hunton, done properly
If a joint has been resealed and is leaking again, it’s worth a proper look. Send pictures when you phone 0345 464 0079 or email us, along with when it was last resealed. We work on shrunken worktop sealant, botched or over-sealed joints and failed movement joints, and people most often call us about sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared and movement joints that have split or pulled away.
Being in a small place like Hunton makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Your questions about remedial sealant in Hunton
Will you come out to Hunton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
I let a flat near Micheldever station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you guarantee remedial jobs?
Yes. Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes. We take our time over removal, particularly on softer surfaces like acrylic.
What remedial sealant looks like in Hunton
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you live in an older home near Church of St James, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
- Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler
- A tray or bath that is cracked
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Failed movement joints
- Expansion joints
Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What we do, step by step
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out, and the area is left clean. For a village or hamlet like Hunton, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- 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.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any parking rules near the property

How the job changes by surface
Movement & expansion joints
Movement joints in floors, walls and façades need a flexible sealant set to the right depth. Failed sealant is cut out, backing rod or tape is fitted and the joint resealed.
Worktops & kitchens
Old kitchen sealant pulls back from the wall over time. We strip it, degrease the joint and reseal.
Quotes for remedial sealant in Hunton
There’s no set price list. The quote depends on:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Whether the work is at height
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The type of sealant required
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- If someone has resealed it before
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add pictures by email if you can.
Common problems we fix in Hunton
Joint depth matters. Sealant packed too deep, or stuck to the back of the joint as well as the sides, cannot stretch, so it tears when the joint moves. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
If you let a flat or house near Micheldever station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.
