What we do, step by step
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. In a small place like Bovingdon Green, access is generally the main thing to plan. 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.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Schools such as Spinfield School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. If you let a flat or house near Marlow station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

Bovingdon Green: your questions answered
I let a flat near Marlow station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Bovingdon Green?
Yes, Bovingdon Green is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we’re fully insured too.
What happens if the problem is the tray or the plumbing?
We check for that before we reseal. If we find the leak is elsewhere, we tell you before going further.
My shower still leaks after a reseal. Can you sort it?
Yes, normally. We check it’s the sealant and not the tray, valve or waste, then the joints are stripped and resealed.
How long does remedial resealing take?
That depends on how many layers there are and how many joints. We will tell you before we start.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll explain which colours are available.

When it isn’t the sealant
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Movement from fittings that are not supported
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.
What we seal
- Failed movement joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Expansion joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
Why it’s worth doing now in Bovingdon Green
Ripping out a bathroom isn’t usually needed. If the bath, tray and tiles are sound, remedial resealing normally puts it right. Where something else has failed, you will hear it from us. Older cottages and farmhouses around Bovingdon Green can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

For landlords and businesses
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
When to call us in Bovingdon Green
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.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Torn expansion joints
- Black mould underneath the bead
Homes close to Congregational Church include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
- Don’t add new sealant on top of old
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Clean sealant with mild products only
Don’t let anyone seal over it later. New silicone does not bond to old.
Warning signs: peeling layers, mould showing through the bead, leaks after showering or cracks in a movement joint. Each one is worth getting looked at.
