Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Waterbeach
Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. Every layer is cut out, the residue cleaned off and the joint degreased, taking care not to scratch the surfaces around it. New sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. Typical jobs include repeat leaks from the same joint and worktop sealant that has shrunk and split, across mouldy bath & shower sealant, leaking tray & enclosure joints and shrunken worktop sealant.
Being in a small place like Waterbeach makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

How it works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere like Waterbeach 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.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Your questions about remedial sealant in Waterbeach
I let a flat near Chichester station. Can you help?

The number of joints and layers decides it. We will tell you before we start.
Do you fix expansion and movement joints?

What else we do in Waterbeach
Remedial sealant around Waterbeach
Waterbeach 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 The Priory Church of St Mary and St Blaize include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Rented homes near Chichester station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.
Waterbeach is about 3 miles north-east of Chichester, in West Sussex. Homes, rented property, offices and hotels in Waterbeach can book us for remedial sealant. Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee. Waterbeach is one of 371 places in West Sussex where we work. There’s also a page for Portsmouth, about 16 miles away.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

Do you need remedial sealant in Waterbeach?
Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, so it starts lifting sooner than it should.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- A second bead peeling off the first
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
Managing a site like Boxgrove CofE Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Before booking anyone
- Are they insured?
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Whether VAT is included
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
Different surfaces, different methods
Leaking trays & enclosures
A shower that leaks after resealing often has a tray that moves or an enclosure sealed on the wrong side. Both are checked before we reseal.
Over-sealed & botched joints
A botched joint can hide two or three layers of sealant, including the smears and film on surrounding tiles. New sealant needs a fully clean surface.
