Remedial sealant in Brookstreet
Two decades of sealant work means we recognise most failures quickly. We are fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every remedial job comes with a 12-month guarantee. Common call-outs are for gaps opening along the back of the worktop and a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed, across shrunken worktop sealant, botched or over-sealed joints and expansion joints.
Homes around Brookstreet are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Should I try it myself first?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Why it’s worth doing now in Brookstreet
Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint does not reach what’s underneath. The layers have to come out, and the joint treated and dried before resealing. Around Brookstreet, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Can I choose the sealant colour?

Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

Remedial sealant in Brookstreet: local notes
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you look after a building such as The Flitch Green Academy, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. In the older streets around Church of St Mary the Virgin, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

What happens on the day
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out, depending on the amount of work. In a small place like Brookstreet, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- The rough size of the job
- Where the property is
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- What’s wrong with the joints now

Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Do not point over movement joints
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
Keep the room ventilated: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.
Mould trapped under over-sealed joints spreads unseen. By the time it shows through, the joint is well past saving.
