How we handle remedial sealant in Inhurst
Water on the floor does not always mean failed silicone. 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 have worktop sealant that has shrunk and split and torn expansion joints, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Homes around Inhurst are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Your questions about remedial sealant in Inhurst
Is Inhurst in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Inhurst is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Inhurst?
Yes. Inhurst 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.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before we start.
How much does remedial sealant cost in Inhurst?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You’ll get a clear quote before we start.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Do you fix expansion and movement joints?
Yes. Where mortar or filler has been used instead of sealant, it’s removed where it can be, then the joint is sealed properly.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?
Yes. There’s generally a reason: sealant over sealant, movement or another leak, and we deal with the cause first.

What else we do in Inhurst
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Common problems we fix in Inhurst
A lot of failed joints have been sealed over rather than replaced. Silicone does not bond to silicone, so the top layer lifts and water and mould collect between the two.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- Black mould underneath the bead
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
If you live in an older home near Saint Mary's Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Remedial sealant in Inhurst: local notes
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Schools such as The Hurst School are buildings too, and 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. If you let a flat or house near Midgham station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

Different surfaces, different methods
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould often spreads under the bead as well as through it. We treat the exposed joint once the bead is out so the new sealant starts clean.
Leaking trays & enclosures
Repeat shower leaks often come from a tray that flexes or an enclosure sealed in the wrong place. Both are checked before we reseal.
How the visit works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere as small as Inhurst, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.
- You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Why it’s worth doing now in Inhurst
A joint that has failed twice will fail again unless the cause is dealt with. Finding it, whether movement, water from elsewhere or an unsuitable product, ends the cycle. Older cottages and farmhouses around Inhurst can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before any work starts.

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Act on a lifting corner straight away
- Check trays and worktops don’t move
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
Clean gently: a mild cleaner and a soft cloth, with no blades or scourers.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
