Boughton Corner homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Lady Joanna Thornhill Endowed Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For an older house near a landmark such as All Saints’ Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. If you let a flat or house near Wye station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

Remedial sealant in Boughton Corner, done properly
Getting old sealant out properly is slow, careful work. Every layer is cut out, the residue cleaned off and the joint degreased, taking care not to scratch the surfaces around it. New sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. If you are dealing with worktop sealant that has shrunk and split and caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Boughton Corner, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

How the job changes by surface
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Black mould inside the bead will not scrub out. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried ahead of a new anti-fungal bead.
Over-sealed & botched joints
Botched joints sometimes have damaged edges from earlier scraping. We work carefully to avoid adding to it, and tell you about any damage we find.
For landlords and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Common questions in Boughton Corner
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Wye station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is Boughton Corner in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes, Boughton Corner is within the area we cover. We work across 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 give you a clear quote.
Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?
Yes. There’s generally a reason: sealant over sealant, movement or another leak, so we find that first.
Can failed expansion joints be resealed?
Yes. Backing sets the depth and stops the sealant sticking to the back.
Can you remove sealant that is been put over old sealant?
Yes. Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off, then the joint is resealed once.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we are fully insured too.
What happens if the problem is the tray or the plumbing?
We’ll tell you. A cracked tray, faulty valve or leaking waste needs a different trade, and we won’t reseal for the sake of it.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Should I try it myself first?
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.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
What sealant work cannot fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler
- Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

What we do, step by step
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere as small as Boughton Corner, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
Getting a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know what needs doing and where and its rough size. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.
Advice
What affects the quote in Boughton Corner
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- Whether the work is at height
- When we can work, for business premises
- How much there is to do
- The number of rooms or windows
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The problem you’ve noticed
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.
Why deal with it now?
Repeat failures have a cause. Taking time to find the cause, whether it’s movement, a leak or the wrong product, is what stops it happening again. Older cottages and farmhouses around Boughton Corner can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear price for the lot.
