Remedial sealant in Wareside
A joint that keeps failing generally has a reason. A tray that moves, a worktop that isn’t fixed, the wrong sealant or water getting in elsewhere will beat any new bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. We work on failed movement joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and shrunken worktop sealant, and the jobs we see most are a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed and torn expansion joints.
Somewhere as small as Wareside, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Leave it or put it right?
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but not by much: 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. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Wareside, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before any work starts.

Remedial sealant around Wareside
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Schools such as Wareside Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Common questions in Wareside
I let a flat near Ware station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you cover Wareside for remedial sealant?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Wareside is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Do you fix expansion and movement joints?
Yes. If a joint has been filled with mortar or rigid filler, we rake it out where possible, and reseal with a flexible product.
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.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can you strip sealant from an acrylic tray safely?
Yes. Careful removal is most of a remedial job, especially on acrylic, enamel and uPVC.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We help you choose a colour that suits, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The product needed can limit the range.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.
