About our remedial sealant in Wroxall
Some sealant jobs are not a simple reseal, because someone has already had a go. New sealant over old, smeared beads, unsuitable products and hidden mould all need stripping out before the joint can be done properly. Typical jobs include thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles and movement joints that have split or pulled away, on leaking tray & enclosure joints, botched or over-sealed joints and shrunken worktop sealant.
Somewhere as small as Wroxall, 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.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Wroxall and everywhere else we cover.

What happens if it’s left?
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. In a small place like Wroxall, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why us?
- Tidy, careful work
- Fully insured
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Keep the room well ventilated
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
Keep an eye on the joint at first, particularly where the original failure was caused by movement. If anything changes, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. In a small place like Wroxall, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Clear the area around the work

Advice
Honest limits
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It won’t solve:
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What affects the cost of remedial sealant
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Any mould that needs treating
- The size of the job
- The number of rooms or windows
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- How we’d reach the joints
- The address or postcode of the job
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
We don’t publish a price list. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Different surfaces, different methods
Over-sealed & botched joints
Thick, smeared sealant looks messy and hides problems. We strip it back so we can see the joint.
Leaking trays & enclosures
A cracked tray, failed valve or leaking waste needs a different fix. We’ll tell you what we find.

What remedial sealant looks like in Wroxall
Wroxall is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Rented homes near Shanklin station change hands often, and botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. Managing a site like Wroxall Primary School? Then 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. In the older streets around St John's Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.

Yes. We check it’s the sealant and not the tray, valve or waste, then the joints are stripped and resealed.
