About our remedial sealant in South Stoke
A movement joint stops working when its sealant splits or sets hard. We cut out the failed sealant and set the depth with backing, then a flexible sealant matched to the movement goes in. If you have movement joints that have split or pulled away and caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area, we can put it right, on shrunken worktop sealant, botched or over-sealed joints and failed movement joints alike.
Homes around South Stoke are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

What we are called out for in South Stoke
Products get mixed up: acrylic caulk in a wet area, a general-purpose sealant on a moving joint, or an acetoxy silicone on natural stone or some metals. Each fails in its own way.
Look out for any of the following:
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
If you live in an older home near Church of St Andrew, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

What the job involves on each surface
Leaking trays & enclosures
Where the joints are the problem, every bead is stripped and resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, including the screen profile and tray edges.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould that has grown into silicone doesn’t clean out for good. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
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 that we can handle for you.
For anyone letting property in or around South Stoke, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each.
Bathrooms and kitchens in South Stoke
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, 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 Cholsey station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. Schools such as South Stoke 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.

Quotes for remedial sealant in South Stoke
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- The number and length of the joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The type of sealant required
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 we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Why deal with it now?
It’s easy to scratch acrylic, enamel or an uPVC frame cutting out old sealant, and the residue left behind stops the next bead bonding. Careful removal is most of a remedial job. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like South Stoke, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Don’t point over movement joints
Give the new sealant its full cure time: generally around 24 hours, or as long as we advise.
Mould trapped under over-sealed joints spreads unseen. When it finally shows, the whole bead needs to come out.
