Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Old Netley
A joint that keeps letting you down needs more than another bead. It helps to have photos when you call 0345 464 0079 or email us, and say how long ago it was last done. We work on botched or over-sealed joints, expansion joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant, and common reasons people get in touch are repeat leaks from the same joint and wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones.
In a village or hamlet like Old Netley, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Old Netley
Old Netley is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Bursledon Church of England Infant School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Bursledon station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

FAQs for Old Netley
Is Old Netley within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Bursledon station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you guarantee remedial jobs?
Yes. You get our 12-month guarantee.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?
Yes. Stripping layered sealant takes longer than a normal reseal, but it’s the only way the new joint will last.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?
The number of joints and layers decides it. We’ll tell you before any work starts.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Deal with small splits early
- Check trays and worktops do not move
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
Keep an eye on the joint at first, especially if movement was the problem. Should anything change, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into floors, walls or ceilings. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.
How we quote for remedial sealant
You’ll get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:
- Any mould that needs treating
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The type of sealant required
- Whether the work is at height
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
What to tell us for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Roughly how big the job is
- Whether it has been sealed before
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that’s easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved.
How it works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere like Old Netley needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
- Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice
More services for Old Netley
Different surfaces, different methods
Movement & expansion joints
Bonding on three sides is a common reason movement joints tear. Backing stops that, so the sealant grips the two sides only.
Windows & doors
Wrong-coloured or messy mastic can be replaced for appearance too, in a colour that suits the frame.
What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
- Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Failed movement joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Expansion joints
When to call us in Old Netley
All sealant wears out eventually. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks, faster where ventilation is poor. At that point it has to come out.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- Over-sealed joints coming away
Homes close to St Paul’s Church include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
