Remedial sealant in Littlehampton, done properly
A joint that keeps failing usually has a reason. A tray that moves, a worktop that is not fixed, the wrong sealant or water getting in elsewhere will beat any new bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. If you are dealing with a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed and movement joints that have split or pulled away, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Littlehampton mixes older houses with estates built more recently, so bathrooms range from long-standing suites to recent refits. Whatever their age, sealant and grout tend to go before anything else.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

Common problems we fix in Littlehampton
One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. New silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so the new layer peels, and damp and mould settle between them.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- A second bead peeling off the first
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
For landlords with property near Littlehampton station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, depending on the size of the job. Parking in a town like Littlehampton is generally straightforward, but tell us if there’s a driveway or any restrictions, and let us know if the work is upstairs, in a flat or up high outside.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
Getting a quote
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Advice
How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
- Never seal over old silicone
Clean gently: a mild cleaner and a soft cloth, with no blades or scourers.
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.
How the job changes by surface
Over-sealed & botched joints
A thick bead smeared across tiles often hides mould or gaps. Taking it back shows what’s underneath.
Leaking trays & enclosures
A shower that leaks after resealing often has a tray that moves or an enclosure sealed on the wrong side. We check both before any new sealant goes on.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Littlehampton
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Littlehampton
Littlehampton is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Managing a site like The Littlehampton Academy? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
