Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Wickham Heath
Remedial work is what we do when sealant has failed or been done badly. Silicone laid over silicone, smears across tiles, the wrong product in a moving joint or mould trapped underneath all need stripping out. Common call-outs are for caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area and over-sealed joints coming away, on botched or over-sealed joints, shrunken worktop sealant and failed movement joints.
For a small place like Wickham Heath, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

How it works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out, and the area is left clean. For a village or hamlet like Wickham Heath, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention any tricky access

When to call us in Wickham Heath
All sealant wears out eventually. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks, faster where ventilation is poor. Then the only fix is removal and a new bead.
People usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
Letting a property close to Kintbury station? Then failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

Remedial sealant around Wickham Heath
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.
Homes close to Parish Church of St Andrew include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Managing a site like Stockcross C.E. School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
FAQs for Wickham Heath
Do you cover smaller places like Wickham Heath?
Yes. Wickham Heath is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Kintbury station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
What if resealing will not fix my leak?
You’ll hear it from us. A cracked tray, faulty valve or leaking waste needs a different trade, so we won’t pretend it will.
Can you remove sealant that’s been put over old sealant?
Yes. Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off, before resealing with a single bead.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before work begins.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
Keep an eye on the joint at first, especially if movement was the problem. Should anything change, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Movement joints that have split let water into the structure, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
