How we handle remedial sealant in Toot Hill
Remedial work is what we do when sealant has failed or been done badly. New sealant over old, smeared beads, unsuitable products and hidden mould all have to come out before the joint can be done properly. If you are dealing with products that weren’t meant for the joint and a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed, we can help, whatever the surface.
Homes around Toot Hill are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What we can’t put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Failed movement joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Expansion joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
Different surfaces, different methods
Movement & expansion joints
Bonding on three sides is a common reason movement joints tear. Backing stops that, so the sealant grips the two sides only.
Over-sealed & botched joints
A thick bead smeared across tiles often hides mould or gaps. We strip it back so we can see the joint, and then we reseal it neatly.
The process
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. In a small place like Toot Hill, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
- Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any tricky access

What we’re called out for in Toot Hill
Even good sealant ages. Over the years it shrinks, hardens and gets colonised by mould, especially in damp, poorly aired rooms. Then the only fix is removal and a new bead.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Black mould underneath the bead
- A second bead peeling off the first
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
In and around Toot Hill, as anywhere, good remedial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
What your quote should include
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What product goes in the joint
- How the colour is chosen
- How much experience the applicator has

Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
