Remedial sealant & repairs in Sandleheath, Hampshire
Removing failed, mouldy or leaking sealant and putting it right for homes and businesses in Sandleheath and across Hampshire. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Do not add new sealant on top of old
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
Don’t let anyone seal over it later. New silicone doesn’t bond to old, so the old bead should always come out first.
Movement joints that have split let water into the structure, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
About our remedial sealant in Sandleheath
Not every leak is a sealant leak. Cracked trays, leaking wastes and faulty valves often look like a sealant problem. If that is what we find, we’ll tell you rather than reseal something that will not fix it. If you have sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared and thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Sandleheath, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Sandleheath homes and their sealant
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.
In the older streets around Sandleheath Uniting Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you look after a building such as The Burgate School and Sixth Form, 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.

For landlords and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Why deal with it now?
Another bead over the top won’t fix a failed joint. It doesn’t grip the old layer, so the leak carries on and there’s now more to remove. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Sandleheath, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Sandleheath questions
Will you come out to Sandleheath?
Yes, Sandleheath is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is there a guarantee on remedial sealant in Sandleheath?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
What happens if the problem is the tray or the plumbing?
We will tell you. A cracked tray, faulty valve or leaking waste needs a different trade, so we won’t pretend it will.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Is it messy?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes. Careful removal is most of a remedial job, especially on acrylic, enamel and uPVC.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we’re fully insured.
What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere as small as Sandleheath, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about any water getting in

Advice
How we quote for remedial sealant
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The type of sealant required
- The size of the job
- The old material and how stubborn it is
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The address or postcode of the job
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add pictures by email if you can.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
- Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
