About our remedial sealant in Lowford
Remedial jobs in Lowford normally fall into a few patterns: 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. Typical jobs include a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed and movement joints that have split or pulled away, on expansion joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and shrunken worktop sealant.
Homes around Lowford range from older cottages to more recent houses. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.
Every job comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Run the fan after every shower
- Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
- Do not point over movement joints
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
Keep an eye on the joint at first, particularly where the original failure was caused by movement. If anything changes, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
If a joint has failed more than once, stop resealing it. Have someone find out why, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.
Leave it or put it right?
Ripping out a bathroom isn’t normally needed. When the fittings are sound, stripping and resealing the joints is often enough. Where something else has failed, you will hear it from us. Around Lowford, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. We will give you a clear price for the lot.
Why us?
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

Surface by surface
Worktops & kitchens
Old kitchen sealant pulls back from the wall over time. We strip it, degrease the joint and reseal in a colour to suit.
Movement & expansion joints
Joints filled with mortar, grout or rigid filler cannot move. Where it can be raked out, we replace it with flexible sealant.
What affects the quote in Lowford
You’ll get a clear quote before we start. It takes into account:
- When we can work, for business premises
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The number and length of the joints
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, please include:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- How we’d reach the joints
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- The rough size of the job
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on

Most jobs then take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out.

- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.

Remedial sealant around Lowford
Lowford is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Bursledon Church of England Infant School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Letting a property close to Bursledon station? Then a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty. For an older house near a landmark such as St Paul’s Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
