What we can’t put right

- 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
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
Where we work in Hurstbourne Priors

About our remedial sealant in Hurstbourne Priors
Not every leak is a sealant leak. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. If you are dealing with sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared and movement joints that have split or pulled away, we can help, whatever the surface.
Around Hurstbourne Priors, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

The process
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere as small as Hurstbourne Priors, 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.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
Before we arrive
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

What the job involves on each surface
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.
Worktops & kitchens
A loose worktop splits its sealant. It needs fixing down first, which we’ll point out.
Do you need remedial sealant in Hurstbourne Priors?
Water from somewhere else can ruin a good seal. A leaking valve, a failed waste or cracked grout feeds water behind the bead, so the silicone goes mouldy or lets go.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
In the older streets around Church of St Andrew, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Remedial sealant around Hurstbourne Priors
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you look after a building such as Testbourne Community School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Rented homes near Whitchurch (Hampshire) station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
FAQs for Hurstbourne Priors
Is Hurstbourne Priors in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Hurstbourne Priors is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Hurstbourne Priors?
Yes. Hurstbourne Priors is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
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.
What does remedial sealant cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Why it’s worth doing now in Hurstbourne Priors
Leaks that are left keep doing damage out of sight: soaked floorboards, ceiling stains below and blown plaster. By comparison, sorting the joint is quick. Older cottages and farmhouses around Hurstbourne Priors can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts.

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Run the fan after every shower
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
Where we’ve pointed out another fault, have it put right, because the new sealant can’t hold back a problem underneath.
Warning signs: peeling layers, mould showing through the bead, leaks after showering or cracks in a movement joint. Each one is worth getting looked at.
