About our remedial sealant in Tadley
Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. We cut out every layer, clear the residue and degrease the surfaces, taking care not to scratch the surfaces around it. Only then can new sealant bond. We work on botched or over-sealed joints, failed movement joints and leaking tray & enclosure joints, and the jobs we see most are mould trapped under a layer of silicone and gaps opening along the back of the worktop.
Plenty of homes in a town like Tadley have had new bathrooms and kitchens over the years. A common problem is new sealant laid over old, which never bonds properly, which is why all the old material has to come out first.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Common questions in Tadley
What guarantee comes with remedial sealant in Tadley?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Can you do remedial sealant in Tadley?
Yes, Tadley is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
How long should I leave it?
It depends on the product. Before we leave, we’ll tell you the cure time.
What if resealing will not fix my leak?
We check for that before we reseal. If we find the leak is elsewhere, we tell you before going further.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
What does remedial sealant cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What remedial sealant looks like in Tadley
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Managing a site like Bishopswood Junior School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near Saint Mary's Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

What the job involves on each surface
Movement & expansion joints
A sealant stuck to the back of the joint cannot stretch. Backing stops that, so the sealant grips the two sides only.
Worktops & kitchens
A loose worktop splits its sealant. That needs refixing before resealing, and we’ll tell you if we find it.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Tadley
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Why it’s worth doing now in Tadley
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but not by much: the work takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent. Gaps in sealant and mould in the bead never get better on their own, and in a busy household in Tadley they spread with every shower and every downpour. Replacing the sealant now is the simplest fix.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

What else we do in Tadley
Do you need remedial sealant in Tadley?
Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, so it starts lifting sooner than it should.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
Rented homes near Midgham station change hands often, and failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.
What your quote should include
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How long the guarantee is
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
When something else is needed
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
- Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Expansion joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Failed movement joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Botched or over-sealed joints
What we do, step by step
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. For a job in Tadley, we need access to where the work is and somewhere nearby to park. For outside work, let us know about side access, gates and any upper-floor joints.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- The joint is tooled and you’re told about anything else we found.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about any water getting in
How to get a quote
