About our remedial sealant in Sarratt
A movement joint stops working when its sealant splits or sets hard. We cut out the failed sealant and set the depth with backing, before resealing with a flexible product suited to the movement. We are often asked to deal with smears and lumps from a botched reseal and movement joints that have split or pulled away, on leaking tray & enclosure joints, botched or over-sealed joints and failed movement joints.
Homes around Sarratt are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Why deal with it now?
Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint does not reach what’s underneath. Removal is the only way to get at it. Older cottages and farmhouses around Sarratt can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before we start.

Sarratt questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Chorleywood station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Will you come out to Sarratt?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Normally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we’ll agree it with you first.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
Do you guarantee remedial jobs?
Yes, with our one-year guarantee. If we have pointed out another problem, getting it fixed helps the new joint last.
What if resealing will not fix my leak?
You will hear it from us. A cracked tray, faulty valve or leaking waste needs a different trade, and we won’t reseal for the sake of it.
Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.
Sarratt homes and their sealant
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.
For landlords with property near Chorleywood station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty. Managing a site like Sarratt Church of England Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Run the fan after every shower
- Don’t point over movement joints
Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: use the extractor or open a window after showering.
A failing joint rarely gets better on its own. Each use pushes more water behind the bead, into floors, walls or ceilings. Sorting it early limits the damage.

What else we do in Sarratt
What we do, step by step
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere as small as Sarratt, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- The joint is tooled and you’re told about anything else we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

When to call us in Sarratt
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.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
If you live in an older home near Church of the Holy Cross, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
What to look for in a quote
- How the colour is chosen
- Is VAT in the price?
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What product goes in the joint
How we quote for remedial sealant
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- Whether the work is at height
- When we can work, for business premises
- How many areas need sealing
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What to tell us for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Where the property is
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- How we’d reach the joints
- If someone has resealed it before
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work.
What we can’t put right

- Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.
