Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Little Hoddington
Getting old sealant out properly is slow, careful work. Every layer is cut out, the residue cleaned off and the joint degreased, taking care not to scratch the surfaces around it. Only then can new sealant bond. Typical jobs include a second bead peeling off the first and gaps opening along the back of the worktop, on botched or over-sealed joints, failed movement joints and leaking tray & enclosure joints.
For a small place like Little Hoddington, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What else we do in Little Hoddington
Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What happens on the day
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. For a village or hamlet like Little Hoddington, 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.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
How to prepare
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Tell us about any water getting in
How to get a quote

Signs you need remedial sealant in Little Hoddington
Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, so it starts lifting sooner than it should.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
- Black mould underneath the bead
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.
What your quote should include
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- The length of the guarantee
- Whether they’re fully insured
How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Deal with small splits early
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
Keep an eye on the joint at first, particularly where the original failure was caused by movement. If anything changes, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into floors, walls or ceilings. Sorting it early limits the damage.
