About our remedial sealant in Lower Farringdon
Water on the floor doesn’t 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. We are often asked to deal with a second bead peeling off the first and movement joints that have split or pulled away, on shrunken worktop sealant, leaking tray & enclosure joints and failed movement joints.
Being in a small place like Lower Farringdon makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Why it’s worth doing now in Lower Farringdon
Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but not by much: it takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. In a small place like Lower Farringdon, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

When to call us in Lower Farringdon
One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. New silicone can’t stick to the old bead, so the new layer peels, and damp and mould settle between them.
The most common problems we see are:
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
For landlords with property near Alton station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

Remedial sealant around Lower Farringdon
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of All Saints, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Lower Farringdon questions
Is Lower Farringdon within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Alton station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
How long does remedial resealing take?
Longer than a simple reseal, because every layer has to come out. Most jobs take a few hours.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you’ll get one quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.
Do you guarantee remedial jobs?
Yes. Our one-year guarantee covers the work.
What happens on the day
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied and we leave things clean and tidy. For a village or hamlet like Lower Farringdon, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us if parking is tricky

How the job changes by surface
Leaking trays & enclosures
If the tray is cracked, or the leak is from the valve or waste, sealant will not fix it. We’ll tell you what we find.
Worktops & kitchens
If a worktop moves when you lean on it, the sealant will keep splitting. It needs fixing down first, and we’ll tell you if we find it.
What affects the quote in Lower Farringdon
We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- The number and length of the joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The product the joint needs
- When we can work, for business premises
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.
