FAQs for Norton
Do you work for landlords with property near Barnham station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Norton?
Yes. Norton is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Where do you work from?

What does remedial sealant cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing and where.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Cure times vary by product and the conditions. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we’ll agree access with you when we book.
About our remedial sealant in Norton
Water on the floor does not always mean failed silicone. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. We work on expansion joints, failed movement joints and botched or over-sealed joints, and common reasons people get in touch are smears and lumps from a botched reseal and floor or wall movement joints that have failed.
Being in a small place like Norton makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Why deal with it now?
Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint does not reach what’s underneath. Removal is the only way to get at it, and the joint treated and dried before resealing. Older cottages and farmhouses around Norton can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

What else we do in Norton
Signs you need remedial sealant in Norton
Water from somewhere else can ruin a good seal. A leaking valve, a failed waste or cracked grout feeds water behind the bead, and the sealant lifts or goes mouldy from underneath.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
For an older house near a landmark such as The Parish Church of St Mary, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Norton
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Managing a site like Ormiston Six Villages Academy? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Rented homes near Barnham station change hands often, and botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the 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 the job changes by surface
Over-sealed & botched joints
Botched joints sometimes have damaged edges from earlier scraping. We take care not to make it worse, and tell you about any damage we find.
Leaking trays & enclosures
When failed joints are the cause, they’re all cut out and renewed, tray edges and screen profiles included.
How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
- Don’t point over movement joints
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Deal with small splits early
If the joint ever needs renewing, have it cut out, not sealed over. New silicone does not bond to old, so the old bead should always come out first.
A failing joint rarely gets better on its own. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into floors, walls or ceilings. Sorting it early limits the damage.
Landlord and commercial work in Norton
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can be quoted together.
How the visit works
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out and we leave things clean and tidy. In a small place like Norton, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
- Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any parking rules near the property
