About our remedial sealant in Stroude
Water on the floor doesn’t always mean failed silicone. Cracked trays, leaking wastes and faulty valves often look like a sealant problem. If that is what we find, we’ll tell you rather than reseal something that will not fix it. We work on failed movement joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and botched or over-sealed joints, and the jobs we see most are worktop sealant that has shrunk and split and a second bead peeling off the first.
For a small place like Stroude, 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.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

What we are called out for in Stroude
All sealant wears out eventually. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks, faster where ventilation is poor. At that point it has to come out.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
For landlords with property near Virginia Water station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

For landlords and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
If we have found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, or the new joint may fail again.
Mould under a second layer of sealant keeps growing out of sight. When it finally shows, the whole bead needs to come out.
Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Remedial sealant around Stroude
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Managing a site like St Ann's Heath Junior School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Homes close to Christ Church include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

What we cannot put right

- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Your questions about remedial sealant in Stroude
Do you cover Stroude for remedial sealant?
Yes, Stroude is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Stroude?
Yes, Stroude is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can failed expansion joints be resealed?
Yes. The depth is set with backing so the sealant only bonds to the two sides, which lets it stretch.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll explain our choice.
Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?
Yes. We cut out all the layers and clean off the film, before resealing with a single bead.
Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?
Yes. All the sealant comes out, we find out why it failed, and the joint is resealed properly.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
How the visit works
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere like Stroude needs a little journey planning: 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 start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
- Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

What happens if it’s left?
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but rarely a lot: the work takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. Older cottages and farmhouses around Stroude can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
