About our remedial sealant in Broom Street
Decorators’ caulk in a shower, bathroom silicone on a window, a rigid filler in a movement joint fails however neatly it’s applied. We take it out and use a sealant made for that joint. We work on shrunken worktop sealant, failed movement joints and botched or over-sealed joints, and people most often call us about gaps opening along the back of the worktop and floor or wall movement joints that have failed.
Being in a small place like Broom Street makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Broom Street and across Kent.

Why deal with it now?
Adding more sealant is the usual quick fix, and it rarely works. It doesn’t grip the old layer, so the leak carries on and there’s now more to remove. In a small place like Broom Street, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
If we have 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.
Signs to act on: sealant lifting at the ends, a second bead visible on top of the first, black mould under the silicone, or stains below a bathroom. Any of them means it’s time for remedial work.

The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. For a village or hamlet like Broom Street, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about any water getting in
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Advice
Remedial sealant in Broom Street: local notes
Broom Street is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Managing a site like Graveney Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. In the older streets around Church of All Saints, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

How the job changes by surface
Leaking trays & enclosures
Repeat shower leaks often come from a tray that flexes or an enclosure sealed in the wrong place. We check both before we reseal.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Repeat mould usually points to a damp, poorly aired room. We’ll reseal and tell you if extraction looks to be the issue.
Do you need remedial sealant in Broom Street?
Using the wrong product is a common cause: acrylic caulk in a wet area, a general-purpose sealant on a moving joint, or an acetoxy silicone on natural stone or some metals. None of them last.
People usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- A second bead peeling off the first
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
For landlords with property near Faversham station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.
