How the job changes by surface
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints often have grease and cleaning residue deep in them, so we spend extra time cleaning.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Black mould inside the bead will not scrub out. All of it comes out, and the joint is treated and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.
About our remedial sealant in Shripney
In Shripney, as anywhere, remedial jobs tend to look alike: over-sealed joints, hidden mould, repeat leaks and split movement joints. We strip each one back and start from scratch. We work on mouldy bath & shower sealant, expansion joints and shrunken worktop sealant, and common reasons people get in touch are black mould underneath the bead and over-sealed joints coming away.
For a small place like Shripney, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Shripney as everywhere else we work.

Common problems we fix in Shripney
One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. New silicone can’t stick to the old bead, so the top layer lifts and water and mould collect between the two.
The most common problems we see are:
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
If you live in an older home near Holy Cross Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
- A tray or bath that is cracked
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed

DIY versus a professional finish
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into 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.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
How we quote for remedial sealant
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Whether the work is at height
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we will come back to you with a quote.
What remedial sealant looks like in Shripney
Shripney is within about 3 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. 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.
Letting a property close to Bognor Regis station? Then botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. Schools such as Bersted Green Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What happens if it’s left?
Leaks that are left keep doing damage out of sight: soaked floorboards, ceiling stains below and blown plaster. By comparison, sorting the joint is quick. Around Shripney, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
