Signs you need remedial sealant in Ashbank
Movement tears sealant that isn’t designed for it. A bath that flexes, a tray that rocks or a building joint that opens and closes will split a rigid or thin bead.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Black mould underneath the bead
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
If you live in an older home near St Nicholas's Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
What to look for in a quote
- How much experience the applicator has
- What preparation is included
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
How we handle remedial sealant in Ashbank
A joint that keeps letting you down needs more than another bead. Send photos when you call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email, and say how long ago it was last done. We work on mouldy bath & shower sealant, shrunken worktop sealant and leaking tray & enclosure joints, and common reasons people get in touch are sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared and decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower.
Being in a small place like Ashbank makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Different surfaces, different methods
Windows & doors
Failed frame mastic is often hard, cracked and in several layers. All of it is cut out and the frame and wall cleaned.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould can sit behind the silicone, not just in it. We treat the exposed joint once the bead is out so the new sealant starts clean.

Leave it or put it right?
Another bead over the top won’t fix a failed joint. It does not grip the old layer, so the leak carries on and there’s now more to remove. In a small place like Ashbank, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

How the visit works
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. The work normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. For a village or hamlet like Ashbank, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
- Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
- The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice
Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Common questions in Ashbank
Is Ashbank in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Ashbank is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Do you work for landlords with property near Hollingbourne 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 send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?
Yes. Repeat leaks normally come from over-sealing, movement or water getting in elsewhere, so we find that first.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need and we will quote it together.
Will there be a smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Is it messy?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
