Remedial sealant around Rowledge
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you look after a building such as Rowledge Church of England Controlled Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. In the older streets around Saint James, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Rented homes near Bentley (Hampshire) station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

About our remedial sealant in Rowledge
Remedial work is what we do when sealant has failed or been done badly. New sealant over old, smeared beads, unsuitable products and hidden mould all have to come out. We work on mouldy bath & shower sealant, leaking tray & enclosure joints and expansion joints, and people most often call us about products that weren’t meant for the joint and movement joints that have split or pulled away.
Homes around Rowledge are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What affects the quote in Rowledge
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The number and length of the joints
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What we need to know
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- If someone has resealed it before
- The type of property
- The rough size of the job
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
- Keep the room well ventilated
Give the new sealant its full cure time: follow the cure time we give you.
Warning signs: peeling layers, mould showing through the bead, leaks after showering or cracks in a movement joint. Any of them means it’s time for remedial work.
Different surfaces, different methods
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints often have grease and cleaning residue deep in them, so we spend extra time cleaning before resealing.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould can sit behind the silicone, not just in it. Once it’s all removed, the joint is treated so the new sealant starts clean.

- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
