What remedial sealant looks like in The Moor
The Moor has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Rented homes near Etchingham station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty. Managing a site like Marlborough House School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

About our remedial sealant in The Moor
A joint that keeps failing normally has a reason. A tray that moves, a worktop that is not fixed, the wrong sealant or water getting in elsewhere will beat any new bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. Common call-outs are for gaps opening along the back of the worktop and floor or wall movement joints that have failed, across expansion joints, shrunken worktop sealant and failed movement joints.
Somewhere as small as The Moor, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in The Moor and everywhere else we cover.

What the job involves on each surface
Leaking trays & enclosures
If the tray is cracked, or the leak is from the valve or waste, sealant won’t fix it. We will tell you what we find.
Windows & doors
Smeared or badly matched mastic can be cut out and redone neatly, matched to the frame colour.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you’re 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 does not work out, we can still put it right.
What sealant work can’t fix
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement from fittings that are not supported
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What affects the quote in The Moor
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The amount of work
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- When we can work, for business premises
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- How we’d reach the joints
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- The type of property
To get a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the location and a short description of the problem. We’ll give you a clear price before any work starts.

FAQs for The Moor
Is The Moor within the area you cover?
Yes. The Moor is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you work in hotels near The Moor?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
How much does remedial sealant cost in The Moor?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we are using.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before we start.
How long should I leave it?
Many sealants skin over quickly but take longer to cure fully. We will tell you how long to leave the joint before we leave.
Is remedial work guaranteed?
Yes, for 12 months. Where we’ve flagged another fault, it needs fixing for the joint to last.
Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?
Yes. We’ll take all the sealant out, look for why it failed and reseal it properly.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
What happens on the day
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere like The Moor needs a little journey planning: 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.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any tricky access

Common problems we fix in The Moor
How a joint is built matters as much as the product. A bead bonded on three sides, or laid too thick, cannot flex, so it tears when the joint moves. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it.
People generally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Torn expansion joints
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
If you live in an older home near Church of St Laurence, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
What your quote should include
- How hidden problems are handled
- Who turns up on the day
- What insurance they hold
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
