West Byfleet Remedial Sealant
Remedial sealant across West Byfleet and nearby, with every bit of old sealant taken out first and a one-year guarantee.
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Over-sealed joints coming away
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
About our remedial sealant in West Byfleet
If a joint fails again and again, something is causing it. Movement, the wrong product or a leak from somewhere else will beat any new bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. If you’re dealing with a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed and kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop, we can help, on failed movement joints, botched or over-sealed joints and shrunken worktop sealant alike.
Homes around West Byfleet range from older cottages to more recent houses. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How the job changes by surface
Leaking trays & enclosures
Where the joints are the problem, every bead is stripped and resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, including the screen profile and tray edges.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Black mould inside the bead will not scrub out. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.
The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The work normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied, depending on the size of the job. A visit to West Byfleet is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
- Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
- The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
- Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
- Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Run the fan after every shower
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
Leave the new joint to cure fully before it gets wet or moves: normally around 24 hours, or as long as we advise.
If a joint has failed more than once, stop resealing it. Have someone find out why, or the next bead will go the same way.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Movement from fittings that are not supported
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Remedial sealant in West Byfleet: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around Church of St John the Baptist, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Letting a property close to West Byfleet station? Then botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

Do you need remedial sealant in West Byfleet?
Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, so it starts lifting sooner than it should.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
If you look after a building such as The Marist Catholic Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
