About our remedial sealant in Wootton
Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. We cut out every layer, clear the residue and degrease the surfaces, without scratching tiles, trays or frames. New sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. If you’re dealing with leaks that keep coming back after resealing and thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Wootton, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Wootton questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Radley station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Will you come out to Wootton?
Yes, Wootton is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
How much does remedial sealant cost in Wootton?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Does remedial work come with a guarantee?
Yes. Our one-year guarantee covers the work, and we’re fully insured.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Does someone need to be in?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
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.
Why act early in Wootton
A joint that has failed twice will fail again unless the cause is dealt with. Taking time to find the cause, whether it’s movement, a leak or the wrong product, is what stops it happening again. Around Wootton, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Wootton
Most of the South East has hard water, 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 Peter, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you look after a building such as Dry Sandford Primary School, 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 Radley station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. For a village or hamlet like Wootton, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

How the job changes by surface
Leaking trays & enclosures
If the tray is cracked, or the leak is from the valve or waste, sealant will not fix it. We’ll tell you what we find.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould often spreads under the bead as well as through it. Once it’s all removed, the joint is treated.
