Remedial sealant in Poulner, done properly
Some sealant jobs aren’t a simple reseal, because someone has already had a go. New sealant over old, smeared beads, unsuitable products and hidden mould all have to come out before the joint can be done properly. We work on mouldy bath & shower sealant, failed movement joints and expansion joints, and common reasons people get in touch are wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones and sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared.
Even in a smaller place like Poulner, bathrooms and kitchens see heavy daily use. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: old sealant or grout cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Why it’s worth doing now in Poulner
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but rarely a lot: it takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent. Around Poulner, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

How the job changes by surface
Windows & doors
Some leaks around windows come from the wall or the window itself. If the frame joint isn’t the cause, we’ll say so.
Leaking trays & enclosures
If the tray is cracked, or the leak is from the valve or waste, sealant won’t fix it. We’ll tell you what we find.
What we can’t put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
- Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Shrunken worktop sealant

How the visit works
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. Most jobs take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. A visit to Poulner is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
Getting ready for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us about any water getting in

What do you need from me for a quote?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Never seal over old silicone
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
Give the new sealant its full cure time: follow the cure time we give you.
Don’t keep resealing the same joint. Get the cause found first, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.

When to call us in Poulner
Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, so it starts lifting sooner than it should.
The most common problems we see are:
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
Homes close to St John the Baptist include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
