Remedial sealant in Blackheath, done properly
With more than 20 years’ experience, our applicators have seen most of the ways sealant can fail. We are ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and remedial work carries our one-year guarantee. If you’re dealing with products that weren’t meant for the joint and a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed, we can put it right, on failed movement joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant alike.
Somewhere as small as Blackheath, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

- The product the joint needs
- Whether the work is at height

The process
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out and we leave things clean and tidy. For a village or hamlet like Blackheath, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it 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
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Blackheath homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings. Blackheath 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.
In the older streets around Church of St Martin, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Chilworth CofE (Aided) Infant School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Blackheath questions
Do you work in hotels near Blackheath?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
Do you cover smaller places like Blackheath?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
How long before the joint can be used?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?
Longer than a simple reseal, because every layer has to come out. For most joints, it’s a few hours, and we confirm the time with your quote.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Why it’s worth doing now in Blackheath
DIY removal often leaves scratches and a film of residue, and any film left behind stops new sealant sticking. Careful removal is most of a remedial job. In a small place like Blackheath, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Signs you need remedial sealant in Blackheath
One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. New silicone can’t stick to the old bead, so the top layer lifts and water and mould collect between the two.
Look out for these signs:
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- A second bead peeling off the first
Letting a property close to Chilworth station? Then a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.
