About our remedial sealant in West Wellow
Remedial work is what we do when sealant has failed or been done badly. New sealant over old, smeared beads, unsuitable products and hidden mould all have to come out before the joint can be done properly. We are often asked to deal with sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted and products that weren’t meant for the joint, across failed movement joints, shrunken worktop sealant and botched or over-sealed joints.
In a village or hamlet like West Wellow, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What affects the quote in West Wellow
You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The product the joint needs
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The old material and how stubborn it is
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- The address or postcode of the job
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that is easier. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll talk you through the work.
How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It usually takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. For a village or hamlet like West Wellow, the journey is planned in advance: 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.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.
How to prepare
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any parking rules near the property

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
How the job changes by surface
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould can sit behind the silicone, not just in it. Once it’s all removed, the joint is treated.
Movement & expansion joints
A sealant stuck to the back of the joint cannot stretch. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it, so the sealant grips the two sides only.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
- A tray or bath that is cracked
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

West Wellow homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Romsey station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. Schools such as Wellow 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. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Margaret, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Never seal over old silicone
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
Give the new sealant its full cure time: normally around 24 hours, or as long as we advise.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.

Will you come out to West Wellow?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
What do you need from me for a quote?

Why it’s worth doing now in West Wellow
Mould under a bead cannot be reached by cleaning. Removal is the only way to get at it, and the joint treated and dried before resealing. In a small place like West Wellow, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
