Remedial sealant in Bodle Street Green
The wrong product in the wrong joint fails however neatly it’s applied. We take it out and use a sealant made for that joint. We are often asked to deal with kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop and torn expansion joints, on failed movement joints, shrunken worktop sealant and mouldy bath & shower sealant.
Being in a small place like Bodle Street Green makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Bodle Street Green homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For an older house near a landmark such as St John the Evangelist, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

When it isn’t the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler
- Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Failed movement joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Expansion joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
Why deal with it now?
Adding more sealant is the usual quick fix, and it rarely works. It does not grip the old layer, so the leak carries on and there’s now more to remove. Older cottages and farmhouses around Bodle Street Green can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

Advice
FAQs for Bodle Street Green
Is remedial sealant in Bodle Street Green guaranteed?
All our work, in Bodle Street Green and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Can you do remedial sealant in Bodle Street Green?
Yes, Bodle Street Green is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?
Yes. It’s slower than a standard reseal, because every layer has to come out cleanly, but it’s the only way the new joint will last.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do.
Can you strip sealant from an acrylic tray safely?
Yes. We cut and lift the old sealant with tools suited to the surface, then clean off the residue. Any existing damage is pointed out before work begins.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Can tenants book the work?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What we’re called out for in Bodle Street Green
Products get mixed up: caulk where it gets wet, rigid sealant where things move, or an acetoxy silicone on a surface it can mark. None of them last.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
In and around Bodle Street Green, as anywhere, good remedial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What the job involves on each surface
Movement & expansion joints
A sealant stuck to the back of the joint cannot stretch. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it, letting the sealant flex between the two faces.
Leaking trays & enclosures
When failed joints are the cause, they’re all cut out and renewed, tray edges and screen profiles included.
