Remedial sealant in Setley, done properly
A joint that keeps letting you down needs more than another bead. It helps to have pictures when you phone 0345 464 0079 or email us, and say how long ago it was last done. We work on shrunken worktop sealant, failed movement joints and expansion joints, and common reasons people get in touch are kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop and black mould underneath the bead.
Somewhere as small as Setley, 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.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What happens on the day
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, and the area is left clean. For a village or hamlet like Setley, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Clear the area around the work
How to get a quote
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.
Advice
How we quote for remedial sealant
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How much there is to do
- Any working-time requirements on site
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- The rough size of the job
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. When it suits you, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Why deal with it now?
Hidden water does the most damage: wet floors, stained ceilings and swollen worktops. Dealing with the joint now is a small job by comparison. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Setley, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Setley homes and their sealant
Setley has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Schools such as Brockenhurst Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and 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 Church of St Nicholas, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. If you let a flat or house near Brockenhurst station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Failed movement joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Expansion joints
What the job involves on each surface
Leaking trays & enclosures
Repeat shower leaks often come from a tray that flexes or an enclosure sealed in the wrong place. We check both before we reseal.
Worktops & kitchens
If a worktop moves when you lean on it, the sealant will keep splitting. That needs refixing before resealing, which we will point out.
Questions from Setley
Do you work for landlords with property near Brockenhurst station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Setley?
Yes, Setley is covered. 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.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we’re fully insured.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
Can you reseal a split movement joint?
Yes. The depth is set with backing so the sealant only bonds to the two sides.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. We avoid heavy scraping and use the right cleaner for each surface, so the new sealant bonds cleanly.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
What else we do in Setley
DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
