Common questions in Bobbing
I let a flat near Newington station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Bobbing in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Bobbing is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
How much does remedial sealant cost in Bobbing?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
How long should I leave it?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Can you reseal a split movement joint?
Yes. We cut out the failed sealant, fit backing and reseal with a flexible product.
Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Bobbing
Some sealant jobs are not a simple reseal, because someone has already had a go. 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 botched or over-sealed joints, failed movement joints and expansion joints, and people most often call us about torn expansion joints and dark patches showing through the sealant.
For a small place like Bobbing, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: 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 stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

When to call us in Bobbing
Joints that move need sealant that can stretch. Flexing baths, rocking trays and building movement joints split any bead that is too stiff or too thin.
Look out for these signs:
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
Rented homes near Newington station change hands often, and botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

For landlords and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Remedial sealant in Bobbing: local notes
Bobbing is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
In the older streets around Church of St Bartholomew, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Grove Park Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Bobbing is about 2 miles west of Sittingbourne, in Kent.

Surface by surface
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Repeat mould generally points to a damp, poorly aired room. Along with resealing, we will mention if the room needs better ventilation.
Windows & doors
A frame that keeps leaking may not be the mastic. If the frame joint is not the cause, we will say so.
When something else is needed
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Where we work in Bobbing

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Why it’s worth doing now in Bobbing
Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but not by much: the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Bobbing, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
Why book with us
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- You choose the colour before work begins
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Colour picked to suit the job

How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied from start to finish. In a small place like Bobbing, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
