Lovedean questions
Do you cover smaller places like Lovedean?
Yes, Lovedean is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you work for landlords with property near Rowlands Castle station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
How long does the work take?
It takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. You will know the timing when we quote.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. We avoid heavy scraping and use the right cleaner for each surface, so the new sealant bonds cleanly.
Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?
Yes, generally. We check it’s the sealant and not the tray, valve or waste, then strip and reseal the joints.
What happens if the problem is the tray or the plumbing?
We check for that before we reseal. If we find the leak is elsewhere, we tell you before going further.
Remedial sealant in Lovedean, done properly
In Lovedean, as anywhere, remedial jobs tend to look alike: sealant over sealant, mould under the bead, leaks that come back and movement joints that have split. We strip each one back and start from scratch. If you are dealing with caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area and repeat leaks from the same joint, we can put it right, on botched or over-sealed joints, expansion joints and leaking tray & enclosure joints alike.
Somewhere as small as Lovedean, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee.

What else we do in Lovedean
What happens if it’s left?
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but not by much: the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent. Older cottages and farmhouses around Lovedean can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What we’re called out for in Lovedean
Water from somewhere else can ruin a good seal. A leaking valve, a failed waste or cracked grout feeds water behind the bead, and the sealant lifts or goes mouldy from underneath.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
If you let a flat or house near Rowlands Castle station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- A tray or bath that is cracked
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lovedean
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
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
When failed joints are the cause, they’re all cut out and renewed, including the screen profile and tray edges.
What happens on the day
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied in most cases. Somewhere as small as Lovedean, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any water getting in
