Remedial sealant & repairs in Bough Beech, Kent
Failed sealant joints in Bough Beech need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, with a one-year guarantee.
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Over-sealed joints coming away
Signs you need remedial sealant in Bough Beech
One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. New silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so the new layer peels, and damp and mould settle between them.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Black mould underneath the bead
If you let a flat or house near Hever station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

How we handle remedial sealant in Bough Beech
Not every leak is a sealant leak. Cracked trays, leaking wastes and faulty valves often look like a sealant problem. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. If you are dealing with gaps opening along the back of the worktop and thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles, we can help, on leaking tray & enclosure joints, expansion joints and failed movement joints alike.
Around Bough Beech, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

How we quote for remedial sealant
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- The number and length of the joints
- Any mould that needs treating
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How easy the joints are to reach
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- If someone has resealed it before
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
We don’t publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

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.
What sealant work can’t fix
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe
- A tray or bath that is cracked
- Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Failed movement joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Expansion joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
What happens on the day
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Somewhere as small as Bough Beech, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- The joint is tooled and you are told about anything else we found.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Why deal with it now?
Leaks that are left keep doing damage out of sight: wet floors, stained ceilings and swollen worktops. By comparison, sorting the joint is quick. Around Bough Beech, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
What you get with us
- Sealant colour chosen to suit
- Colour agreed with you before work begins
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- One-year guarantee on every job
