- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
How it works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on. The job normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. A visit to Broughton is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- The joint is tooled and you’re told about anything else we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Broughton
The wrong product in the wrong joint fails however neatly it’s applied. We take it out and use a sealant made for that joint. We are often asked to deal with kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop and a second bead peeling off the first, across botched or over-sealed joints, failed movement joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.
Smaller places like Broughton still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: old sealant or grout cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Broughton: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Woburn Sands station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover Broughton for remedial sealant?
Yes, Broughton is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.
What happens if the problem is the tray or the plumbing?
You’ll hear it from us. If it’s a cracked tray, a failed valve or a leaking waste, resealing will not fix it, so we won’t pretend it will.
Can you reseal a split movement joint?
Yes. Where mortar or filler has been used instead of sealant, it’s removed where it can be, then the joint is sealed properly.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Do you guarantee remedial jobs?
Yes. Remedial work carries the same 12-month guarantee as all our work.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Broughton
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Broughton Fields Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Rented homes near Woburn Sands station change hands often, and failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. In the older streets around St Lawrence's Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Green spaces nearby include Willen Lake and Blue Lagoon Park.
DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Why deal with it now?
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but not by much: 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. Around Broughton, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

What we can’t put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Failed movement joints
- Expansion joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Botched or over-sealed joints
Different surfaces, different methods
Leaking trays & enclosures
A cracked tray, failed valve or leaking waste needs a different fix. We’ll tell you what we find.
Windows & doors
Failed frame mastic is often hard, cracked and in several layers. All of it is cut out and the frame and wall cleaned before backing and resealing.

How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Keep the room well ventilated
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
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.
Warning signs: peeling layers, mould showing through the bead, leaks after showering or cracks in a movement joint. Any of them means it’s time for remedial work.
