Remedial sealant in Poling
Two decades of sealant work means we recognise most failures quickly. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every remedial job comes with a 12-month guarantee. We work on shrunken worktop sealant, botched or over-sealed joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant, and people most often call us about beads that never stuck properly and floor or wall movement joints that have failed.
Somewhere as small as Poling, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

How we quote for remedial sealant
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How much there is to do
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will talk you through it.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Where the property is
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
To get a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the location and a short description of the problem. We’ll give you a clear quote before any work starts.
Common problems we fix in Poling
Joint depth matters. Sealant packed too deep, or stuck to the back of the joint as well as the sides, can’t stretch, and tears at the first real movement. Backing sets the depth and stops that.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Littlehampton Academy, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
What your quote should include
- Whether you can choose the colour
- When the joint can take water or movement
- The length of the guarantee
- What happens if the job turns out different
Common questions in Poling
Do you cover Poling for remedial sealant?
Yes, Poling is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Arundel station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
How long does remedial resealing take?
The number of joints and layers decides it. We’ll tell you before any work starts.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Is it messy?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.

Poling homes and their sealant
Poling is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Nicholas, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. For landlords with property near Arundel station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
If the joint ever needs renewing, have it cut out, not sealed over. Over-sealing is how many remedial jobs start.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
Landlord and commercial work in Poling
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Letting agents and landlords in Poling can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
What happens on the day
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere as small as Poling, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

How the job changes by surface
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints hold grease and residue, so cleaning takes longer than in a bathroom.
Leaking trays & enclosures
If the tray is cracked, or the leak is from the valve or waste, sealant won’t fix it. We say so rather than reseal.
