How we handle remedial sealant in The Hangers
Decorators’ caulk in a shower, bathroom silicone on a window, a rigid filler in a movement joint won’t last, however tidy it looks. Out it comes, and in goes a sealant suited to the job. If you have kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop and movement joints that have split or pulled away, we can help.
Around The Hangers, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee.

Why deal with it now?
A joint that has failed twice will fail again unless the cause is dealt with. Finding it, whether movement, water from elsewhere or an unsuitable product, ends the cycle. In a small place like The Hangers, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first and give you a clear price before any work starts.
Why us?
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Arbo and Everbuild products

Can I do it myself?
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.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in The Hangers and across Hampshire. We can quote a run of properties together.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
The Hangers: your questions answered
Can you do remedial sealant in The Hangers?
Yes, The Hangers is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Botley station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
What if the leak isn’t the sealant?
We’ll tell you. A cracked tray, faulty valve or leaking waste needs a different trade, and we won’t reseal for the sake of it.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. We take our time over removal, particularly on softer surfaces like acrylic.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few photos.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
The Hangers homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you let a flat or house near Botley station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty. If you look after a building such as Bishops Waltham Infant School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. For a village or hamlet like The Hangers, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Act on a lifting corner right away
- Keep the room well ventilated
If we have found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, because the new sealant cannot hold back a problem underneath.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
Surface by 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
Black mould inside the bead will not scrub out. All of it comes out, and the joint is treated and dried ahead of a new anti-fungal bead.
