Remedial sealant in Wickham: local notes
Wickham has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Schools such as Wickham Church of England Primary 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. Rented homes near Fareham station change hands often, and failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. In the older streets around Church of St Nicholas, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Remedial sealant in Wickham, done properly
Not every leak is a sealant leak. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. If that’s what we find, we will tell you rather than reseal something that won’t fix it. If you are dealing with thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles and products that weren’t meant for the joint, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Around Wickham, you’ll mostly find houses and bungalows, some older and some much newer. Bathrooms and kitchens here get the same daily wear as anywhere, and the sealant and grout show it first.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Don’t add new sealant on top of old
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Don’t point over movement joints
Keep the room ventilated: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.
Movement joints that have split let water into the structure, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
What happens if it’s left?
A joint that has failed twice will fail again unless the cause is dealt with. Finding it, whether movement, water from elsewhere or an unsuitable product, ends the cycle. Around Wickham, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.

The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on. The job normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Parking around Wickham is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Surface by surface
Movement & expansion joints
Joints filled with mortar, grout or rigid filler can’t move. We rake that out where it can be removed and seal with a flexible product.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Repeat mould usually points to a damp, poorly aired room. We’ll reseal and tell you if extraction looks to be the issue.
How we quote for remedial sealant
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The number and length of the joints
- Access and height
- Working hours on commercial sites
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The address or postcode of the job
- How we’d reach the joints
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will come back to you with a quote.

Wickham: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Wickham?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work in hotels near Wickham?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Do you fix expansion and movement joints?
Yes. Backing sets the depth and stops the sealant sticking to the back, which lets it stretch.
How long does the work take?
That depends on how many layers there are and how many joints. You’ll have a timescale before any work begins.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
