- Beads that never stuck properly
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
The process
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied from start to finish. Somewhere as small as Yarmouth, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice
Remedial sealant in Yarmouth, done properly
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 have to come out. We are often asked to deal with dark patches showing through the sealant and beads that never stuck properly, across expansion joints, botched or over-sealed joints and shrunken worktop sealant.
Being in a small place like Yarmouth makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Other services in Yarmouth
Bathrooms and kitchens in Yarmouth
Yarmouth is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Yarmouth has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
Managing a site like Yarmouth Church of England Aided Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For landlords with property near Lymington Pier station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.
Yarmouth is about 4 miles south-east of Lymington, in the Isle of Wight. Every kind of property in Yarmouth can book us for remedial sealant. The work is guaranteed for a year. Across the Isle of Wight, we cover 125 places, Yarmouth among them. For nearby work, see our Southampton page (15 miles or so).
All of PO41 is covered for remedial sealant. You’ll find streets such as High Street, Station Road and Alma Place. Main roads around Yarmouth include the A3054, which makes travel easy. Nearby, we also carry out remedial sealant in Bouldnor (1 mile east), Cranmore (2 miles east), Hamstead (3 miles east), Shalfleet (3 miles east) and East End (5 miles north). We also work in nearby towns such as Newport (9 miles east), Ryde (15 miles east), Cowes (9 miles north-east), Sandown (15 miles east), Shanklin (15 miles east) and Ventnor (15 miles south-east). For island and remote addresses, a little more planning is needed, so let us know when you get in touch.

Open spaces near Yarmouth include Lymington and Keyhaven Marshes Nature Reserve and Afton Down.
Signs you need remedial sealant in Yarmouth
Joint depth matters. A bead bonded on three sides, or laid too thick, cannot flex, so it tears when the joint moves. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
Homes close to St. James' Church include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
What your quote should include
- Are they insured?
- Who turns up on the day
- Which colour the sealant will be
- When the joint can take water or movement
Landlords, agents and businesses in Yarmouth
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Do not add new sealant on top of old
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
- Find out why the sealant failed first
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
Keep an eye on the joint at first, especially if movement was the problem. Should anything change, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
A failing joint rarely gets better on its own. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into whatever is behind or below. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.
Common questions in Yarmouth
Is Yarmouth within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you work in hotels near Yarmouth?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?
Yes. Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off, then the joint is resealed once.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured for every job we do.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
What does remedial sealant cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
Quotes for remedial sealant in Yarmouth
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The old material and how stubborn it is
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
What we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The type of property
- Roughly how big the job is
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add pictures by email if you can.
When something else is needed
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
- A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Expansion joints
- Failed movement joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
What happens if it’s left?
Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but rarely a lot: it takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Yarmouth, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
