We work on shrunken worktop sealant, botched or over-sealed joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant, and common reasons people get in touch are sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared and products that weren’t meant for the joint.

Your questions about remedial sealant in Bishop's Green
Do you cover Bishop's Green for remedial sealant?
Yes, Bishop's Green is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Bishop's Green?
Yes, Bishop's Green is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can failed expansion joints be resealed?
Yes. Where mortar or filler has been used instead of sealant, it’s removed where it can be, and reseal with a flexible product.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes. We take our time over removal, particularly on softer surfaces like acrylic.
What does remedial sealant cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.
What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we’ll agree it with you first.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bishop's Green
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
Common problems we fix in Bishop's Green
Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, and the joint starts to come away early.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
- A second bead peeling off the first
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
If you live in an older home near Church of St Peter, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Before you book anyone
- How much experience the applicator has
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Do not wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
- Never seal over old silicone
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
Give the new sealant its full cure time: follow the cure time we give you.
Movement joints that have split let water into the structure, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
How the visit works
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. In a small place like Bishop's Green, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
