Remedial sealant in Broadfield, done properly
Not every leak is a sealant leak. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. If that’s what we find, we will tell you rather than reseal something that won’t fix it. We are often asked to deal with beads that never stuck properly and smears and lumps from a botched reseal, across leaking tray & enclosure joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and failed movement joints.
Even in a smaller place like Broadfield, bathrooms and kitchens see heavy daily use. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: old sealant or grout cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

The process
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. For a job in Broadfield, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
How to prepare
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Broadfield homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. Crawley, which Broadfield is part of, is one of England’s post-war new towns. Many homes date from the post-war decades, so bathrooms and kitchens may be on their second or third set of sealant. Sealant laid over old sealant never bonds properly, so it all has to come out.
For an older house near a landmark such as Christ The Lord, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. If you let a flat or house near Crawley station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

Broadfield: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Broadfield?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is it worth replacing old sealant in an older home in Broadfield?
In most cases, yes, if it hasn’t been done for a while. Sealant doesn’t last for ever, and its life depends on use, cleaning and weather.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured for every job we do.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will tell you what we’re using.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We’ll suggest a colour to suit the surroundings, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The product needed can limit the range.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why act early in Broadfield
Mould under a bead cannot be reached by cleaning. Removal is the only way to get at it, so the joint can be treated and resealed. Homes in smaller places like Broadfield can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before any work starts.

Different surfaces, different methods
Windows & doors
Wrong-coloured or messy mastic can be replaced for appearance too, in a colour that suits the frame.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Repeat mould usually points to a damp, poorly aired room. Along with resealing, we’ll mention if the room needs better ventilation.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Broadfield
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will quote.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Common problems we fix in Broadfield
Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, so it starts lifting sooner than it should.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
If you look after a building such as Seymour Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
What your quote should include
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Don’t wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
Give the new sealant its full cure time: follow the cure time we give you.
Movement joints that have split let water into the structure, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
