Remedial Sealant in Nounsley
We cover Nounsley for removing failed, mouldy or leaking sealant and putting it right. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Torn expansion joints
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
What happens if it’s left?
Leaks that are left keep doing damage out of sight: soaked floorboards, ceiling stains below and blown plaster. Dealing with the joint now is a small job by comparison. In a small place like Nounsley, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.
Why us?
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas

- Over 20 years’ experience

Remedial sealant in Nounsley
Decorators’ caulk in a shower, bathroom silicone on a window, a rigid filler in a movement joint fails however neatly it’s applied. Out it comes, and in goes a sealant suited to the job. If you have products that weren’t meant for the joint and floor or wall movement joints that have failed, we can help.
Homes around Nounsley are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Remedial sealant around Nounsley
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For an older house near a landmark such as Parish Church of St Andrew, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. For landlords with property near Hatfield Peverel station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

How long should I leave it?

What if the leak isn’t the sealant?
Then we explain what we have found. You may need a plumber or bathroom fitter before any new sealant goes on.

Are you an approved applicator?

When it is not the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Check trays and worktops don’t move
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
- Never seal over old silicone
Keep the room ventilated: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.
Mould trapped under over-sealed joints spreads unseen. By the time it shows through, the joint is well past saving.

What we’re called out for in Nounsley
A lot of failed joints have been sealed over rather than replaced. New silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so the new layer peels, and damp and mould settle between them.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Black mould underneath the bead
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Hatfield Peverel Infant School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How the visit works
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out in most cases. In a small place like Nounsley, access is normally 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.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Clear the area around the work
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
