Remedial sealant in Lower Froyle, done properly
If a joint fails again and again, something is causing it. Movement, the wrong product or a leak from somewhere else will beat any new bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. We work on leaking tray & enclosure joints, shrunken worktop sealant and failed movement joints, and people most often call us about a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed and products that weren’t meant for the joint.
In a village or hamlet like Lower Froyle, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Signs you need remedial sealant in Lower Froyle
Some joints fail because water is reaching them from behind. A slow leak behind the tiles soaks the joint from the back, so the silicone goes mouldy or lets go.
The most common problems we see are:
- Black mould underneath the bead
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
In the older streets around Church of St Mary of the Assumption, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Questions to ask before you book
- Is VAT in the price?
- The length of the guarantee
- Whether they’re fully insured
- What preparation is included
What happens on the day
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. In a small place like Lower Froyle, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
How to prepare
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Advice
Leave it or put it right?
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but not by much: it takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. In a small place like Lower Froyle, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Take a look at how sealant jobs are priced and our reviews.
What the job involves on each surface
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould often spreads under the bead as well as through it. Once it’s all removed, the joint is treated so the new sealant starts clean.
Movement & expansion joints
Some movement joints have been filled with mortar or grout. Where it can be raked out, we replace it with flexible sealant.
Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
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.
