Remedial sealant in Upper Clatford, done properly
A joint that keeps failing usually has a reason. Movement, the wrong product or a leak from somewhere else will defeat even a perfect bead. Finding that cause comes before any new sealant. Typical jobs include torn expansion joints and mould trapped under a layer of silicone, across leaking tray & enclosure joints, botched or over-sealed joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.
Homes around Upper Clatford are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Why deal with it now?
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but rarely a lot: the work takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent. Older cottages and farmhouses around Upper Clatford can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What we’re called out for in Upper Clatford
Water from somewhere else can ruin a good seal. A slow leak behind the tiles soaks the joint from the back, and the sealant lifts or goes mouldy from underneath.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
If you let a flat or house near Andover station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

Upper Clatford homes and their sealant
Upper Clatford 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, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Balksbury Junior 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.

What the job involves on each surface
Windows & doors
Failed frame mastic is often hard, cracked and in several layers. All of it is cut out and the frame and wall cleaned before backing and resealing.
Leaking trays & enclosures
If the tray is cracked, or the leak is from the valve or waste, sealant won’t fix it. We’ll tell you what we find.
What affects the cost of remedial sealant
There’s no set price list. What we look at:
- The type of sealant required
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number of rooms or windows
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Photos by email, if that is easy
To get a quote, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You will have a clear quote before work begins.
How the visit works
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The work normally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out, depending on how much there is to do. For a village or hamlet like Upper Clatford, 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.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- 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’re told about anything else we found.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
How to get a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we will take it from there.

Questions from Upper Clatford
Do you work for landlords with property near Andover station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Upper Clatford?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
Do you guarantee remedial jobs?
Yes, for 12 months. If we have pointed out another problem, getting it fixed helps the new joint last.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
How long does remedial resealing take?
The number of joints and layers decides it. You’ll have a timescale before any work begins.
Can you strip sealant from an acrylic tray safely?
Yes. Residue is removed with a product suited to the surface rather than scraped hard, so the new sealant bonds cleanly.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
Clean gently: no scraping, scouring pads or harsh chemicals.
Warning signs: sealant lifting at the ends, a second bead visible on top of the first, black mould under the silicone, or stains below a bathroom. Any of them means it’s time for remedial work.
