Remedial sealant in Broad Oak
The wrong product in the wrong joint fails however neatly it’s applied. Out it comes, and in goes a sealant suited to the job. We work on expansion joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and failed movement joints, and common reasons people get in touch are a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed and over-sealed joints coming away.
Homes around Broad Oak are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How it works
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied, and the area is left clean. Somewhere as small as Broad Oak, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
- Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.
Getting ready for the visit

Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Broad Oak homes and their sealant
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.
If you let a flat or house near Sturry station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Sturry Church of England Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. If you live in an older home near St Nicholas' Church, 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:
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
- Do not wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Run the fan after every shower
If we’ve found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, because the new sealant cannot hold back a problem underneath.
Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into floors, walls or ceilings. Sorting it early limits the damage.

Why it’s worth doing now in Broad Oak
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but rarely a lot: it takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent. Older cottages and farmhouses around Broad Oak 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 drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Wrong-coloured or messy mastic can be replaced for appearance too, matched to the frame colour.
