- Beads that never stuck properly

- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed

Remedial sealant in Woosehill, done properly
Movement and expansion joints fail when the sealant can’t stretch. The old sealant comes out and backing goes in to control the depth, before resealing with a flexible product suited to the movement. Typical jobs include dark patches showing through the sealant and thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles, across leaking tray & enclosure joints, botched or over-sealed joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.
In a smaller place like Woosehill, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, from older cottages to newer builds. Bathrooms and kitchens here get the same daily wear as anywhere, and the sealant and grout show it first.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How the visit works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied in most cases. For a job in Woosehill, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Common questions in Woosehill
Will you come out to Woosehill?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
I let a flat near Wokingham station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
How much does remedial sealant cost in Woosehill?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before work begins.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will explain our choice.
What should I tell you?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
When it isn’t the sealant
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Botched or over-sealed joints

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
How the job changes by surface
Movement & expansion joints
Some movement joints have been filled with mortar or grout. We rake that out where it can be removed and seal with a flexible product.
Windows & doors
Failed frame mastic is often hard, cracked and in several layers. We remove it all and clean back to sound surfaces.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Keep the room well ventilated
- Act on a lifting corner right away
- Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
Give the new sealant its full cure time: generally around 24 hours, or as long as we advise.
Signs to act on: peeling layers, mould showing through the bead, leaks after showering or cracks in a movement joint. Each one is worth getting looked at.
