Sheerwater Remedial Sealant
We cover Sheerwater for removing failed, mouldy or leaking sealant and putting it right. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
What the job involves on each surface
Movement & expansion joints
Some movement joints have been filled with mortar or grout. We rake that out where it can be removed and seal with a flexible product.
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.
Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Sheerwater
A joint that keeps letting you down needs more than another bead. It helps to have photos when you call 0345 464 0079 or email us. We work on shrunken worktop sealant, mouldy bath & shower sealant and leaking tray & enclosure joints, and people most often call us about movement joints that have split or pulled away and sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface.
For a small place like Sheerwater, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What remedial sealant looks like in Sheerwater
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you live in an older home near St. Michaels Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For landlords with property near West Byfleet station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

The process
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. In a small place like Sheerwater, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice
For landlords and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Sheerwater and across Surrey. Several sites can go on one quote, and we’re fully insured for the work.
What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Failed movement joints
- Expansion joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Botched or over-sealed joints
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Run the fan after every shower
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Never seal over old silicone
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
Keep an eye on the joint at first, particularly where the original failure was caused by movement. If anything changes, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Movement joints that have split let water into the structure, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
Sheerwater questions
Do you cover smaller places like Sheerwater?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you cover Sheerwater for remedial sealant?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Sheerwater is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. More than one area can go on one quote.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we’re fully insured.
How long does the work take?
The number of joints and layers decides it. We’ll tell you before we start.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. We avoid heavy scraping and use the right cleaner for each surface.
Leave it or put it right?
Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint does not reach what’s underneath. The layers have to come out, so the joint can be treated and resealed. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Sheerwater, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

Common problems we fix in Sheerwater
Movement tears sealant that isn’t designed for it. Flexing baths, rocking trays and building movement joints split any bead that’s too stiff or too thin.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
Schools such as Broadmere Primary Academy 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.
What to look for in a quote
- What insurance they hold
- What the cure time is
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
