Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Trotton
Movement and expansion joints fail when the sealant cannot stretch. The old sealant comes out and backing goes in to control the depth, before resealing with a flexible product suited to the movement. We work on leaking tray & enclosure joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and shrunken worktop sealant, and people most often call us about black mould underneath the bead and a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed.
Being in a small place like Trotton makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Trotton as everywhere else we work.

Trotton homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you look after a building such as Stedham Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
- Check trays and worktops don’t move
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: use the extractor or open a window after showering.
Signs to act on: sealant lifting at the ends, a second bead visible on top of the first, black mould under the silicone, or stains below a bathroom. Each one is worth getting looked at.
Questions from Trotton
Is there a guarantee on remedial sealant in Trotton?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Can you do remedial sealant in Trotton?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Trotton is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes. We avoid heavy scraping and use the right cleaner for each surface, so the new sealant bonds cleanly.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

- Failed movement joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Expansion joints
How the job changes by surface
Over-sealed & botched joints
Thick, smeared sealant looks messy and hides problems. We strip it back so we can see the joint.
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints hold grease and residue, so we spend extra time cleaning.
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.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
How we quote for remedial sealant
You will get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The size of the job
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Mould in or behind the old joints
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- If someone has resealed it before
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- The rough size of the job
Every job is quoted individually. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details and send pictures if you have them.
How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. In a small place like Trotton, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- The joint is tooled and you are told about anything else we found.
Before we arrive
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
Get a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we will take it from there.

When to call us in Trotton
Even good sealant ages. Over the years it shrinks, hardens and gets colonised by mould. At that point it has to come out.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- Black mould underneath the bead
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
In the older streets around St George's Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
