Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Lower Titmore Green
Decorators’ caulk in a shower, bathroom silicone on a window, a rigid filler in a movement joint will not last, however tidy it looks. We take it out and use a sealant made for that joint. We work on leaking tray & enclosure joints, failed movement joints and expansion joints, and the jobs we see most are caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area and torn expansion joints.
Somewhere as small as Lower Titmore Green, 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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Do you need remedial sealant in Lower Titmore Green?
Even good sealant ages. Over the years it shrinks, hardens and gets colonised by mould. At that point it has to come out.
The most common problems we see are:
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Over-sealed joints coming away
In the older streets around Church of St Mary the Virgin, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

How the job changes by surface
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 we reseal.
Windows & doors
A frame that keeps leaking may not be the mastic. We check the joint and tell you if it looks to be something else.

Leave it or put it right?
A failed seal rarely means a new bathroom. When the fittings are sound, stripping and resealing the joints is often enough. Where something else has failed, you will hear it from us. Older cottages and farmhouses around Lower Titmore Green can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Run the fan after every shower
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Check trays and worktops don’t move
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: use the extractor or open a window after showering.
Movement joints that have split let water into the structure, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
What happens on the day
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. For a village or hamlet like Lower Titmore Green, 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.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
