Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Remedial sealant in Matchams, done properly
Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. Every layer is cut out, the residue cleaned off and the joint degreased, taking care not to scratch the surfaces around it. New sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. If you have products that weren’t meant for the joint and smears and lumps from a botched reseal, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Around Matchams, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

In and around Matchams, as anywhere, good remedial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. Whether the job is in Matchams itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

What else we do in Matchams
Different surfaces, different methods
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints often have grease and cleaning residue deep in them, so we spend extra time cleaning before resealing.
Movement & expansion joints
Joints filled with mortar, grout or rigid filler can’t move. We rake that out where it can be removed and seal with a flexible product.
Leave it or put it right?
It’s easy to scratch acrylic, enamel or an uPVC frame cutting out old sealant, and any film left behind stops new sealant sticking. Careful removal is most of a remedial job. Older cottages and farmhouses around Matchams can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Don’t point over movement joints
- Do not wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
Give the new sealant its full cure time: normally around 24 hours, or as long as we advise.
A failing joint rarely gets better on its own. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into floors, walls or ceilings. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.

Quotes for remedial sealant in Matchams
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The product the joint needs
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Where the property is
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and describe the job.
How the visit works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out from start to finish. Somewhere like Matchams needs a little journey planning: 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.
- 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.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
How to prepare
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
