How we handle remedial sealant in Aylesford
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 need stripping out. We work on failed movement joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and expansion joints, and common reasons people get in touch are dark patches showing through the sealant and thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles.
In and around Aylesford, older properties sit alongside newer ones. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are covered after we have gone.

Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
What we do, step by step
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Parking around Aylesford is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- The joint is tooled and you’re told about anything else we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
- Check trays and worktops don’t move
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
Do not let anyone seal over it later. New silicone does not bond to old.
Mould trapped under over-sealed joints spreads unseen. By the time it shows through, the joint is well past saving.
Why act early in Aylesford
Hidden water does the most damage: soaked floorboards, ceiling stains below and blown plaster. By comparison, sorting the joint is quick. In a smaller place like Aylesford, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why Aylesford customers choose us
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- Colour picked to suit the job
- We agree the colour with you first
Read our cost guide or what customers say.
Common problems we fix in Aylesford
Water from somewhere else can ruin a good seal. A leaking valve, a failed waste or cracked grout feeds water behind the bead, and the sealant lifts or goes mouldy from underneath.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- A second bead peeling off the first
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
If you look after a building such as Aylesford 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.

How much does remedial sealant cost in Aylesford?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?
Yes. Both layers come out; over-sealing fails because silicone won’t bond to silicone.
Can failed expansion joints be resealed?
Yes. The depth is set with backing so the sealant only bonds to the two sides.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.
