About our remedial sealant in West Lavington
Remedial jobs in West Lavington generally fall into a few patterns: sealant over sealant, mould under the bead, leaks that come back and movement joints that have split. We strip each one back and start from scratch. If you have gaps opening along the back of the worktop and floor or wall movement joints that have failed, we can help, whatever the surface.
For a small place like West Lavington, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Signs you need remedial sealant in West Lavington
Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. 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:
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- A second bead peeling off the first
- Torn expansion joints
In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Mary Magdalene, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

How the job changes by surface
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints hold grease and residue, so cleaning takes longer than in a bathroom before resealing.
Movement & expansion joints
Movement joints in floors, walls and façades need a flexible sealant set to the right depth. Failed sealant is cut out, backing rod or tape is fitted and the joint resealed with a low-modulus product.

What happens on the day
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. It generally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. In a small place like West Lavington, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
How to prepare
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

My shower still leaks after a reseal. Can you sort it?

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
Clean gently: no scraping, scouring pads or harsh chemicals.
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. Any of them means it’s time for remedial work.
