Remedial sealant in Mottisfont, done properly
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. If that’s what we find, we will tell you rather than reseal something that will not fix it. We are often asked to deal with a second bead peeling off the first and worktop sealant that has shrunk and split, on failed movement joints, shrunken worktop sealant and expansion joints.
Somewhere as small as Mottisfont, 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.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Why deal with it now?
A joint that has failed twice will fail again unless the cause is dealt with. Finding it, whether movement, water from elsewhere or an unsuitable product, ends the cycle. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Mottisfont, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Remedial sealant around Mottisfont

What else we do in Mottisfont
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Run the fan after every shower
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Never seal over old silicone
Don’t let anyone seal over it later. Over-sealing is how many remedial jobs start, so the old bead should always come out first.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It will not solve:
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Expansion joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Failed movement joints
Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

How we quote for remedial sealant
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- The product the joint needs
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number and length of the joints
- Working hours on commercial sites
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
Asking for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Where the property is
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we will explain what’s involved.
The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. The job usually takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Somewhere as small as Mottisfont, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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
- Clear the area around the work
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any tricky access
