Remedial sealant in West Stoke, done properly
With more than 20 years’ experience, our applicators have seen most of the ways sealant can fail. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and remedial work carries our 12-month guarantee. If you are dealing with kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop and sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface, we can put it right, on botched or over-sealed joints, expansion joints and shrunken worktop sealant alike.
Around West Stoke, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What we are called out for in West Stoke
A lot of failed joints have been sealed over rather than replaced. New silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so the new layer peels, and damp and mould settle between them.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
Schools such as Bishop Luffa School are buildings too, and 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 to look for in a quote
- Are they insured?
- How much experience the applicator has
- What preparation is included
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Don’t wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Clean sealant with mild products only
Keep an eye on the joint at first, especially if movement was the problem. If anything changes, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into whatever is behind or below. Sorting it early limits the damage.

Why it’s worth doing now in West Stoke
Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but not by much: it takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent. Older cottages and farmhouses around West Stoke can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

How the visit works
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere like West Stoke needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.

Remedial sealant around West Stoke
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.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Andrew, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Rented homes near Fishbourne station change hands often, and botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.
