About our remedial sealant in Capel Cross
If a joint fails again and again, something is causing it. A tray that moves, a worktop that is not fixed, the wrong sealant or water getting in elsewhere will defeat even a perfect bead. Finding that cause comes before any new sealant. We work on expansion joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and failed movement joints, and the jobs we see most are floor or wall movement joints that have failed and over-sealed joints coming away.
Homes around Capel Cross are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee.

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 matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

What affects the cost of remedial sealant
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The type of sealant required
- How much there is to do
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

How the job changes by surface
Over-sealed & botched joints
Every layer has to come out, including the smears and film on surrounding tiles. Only a clean joint will take a new bead.
Windows & doors
Frames resealed over the top end up with hard, layered mastic. All of it is cut out and the frame and wall cleaned before backing and resealing.
What we’re called out for in Capel Cross
How a joint is built matters as much as the product. A bead bonded on three sides, or laid too thick, can’t flex, so it tears when the joint moves. Backing sets the depth and stops that.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
Managing a site like Horsmonden Primary School? Then 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.

Capel Cross: your questions answered
Is Capel Cross within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you do remedial sealant in Capel Cross?
Yes, Capel Cross is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Is remedial work guaranteed?
Yes, for 12 months. Where we have flagged another fault, it needs fixing for the joint to last.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Do you fix expansion and movement joints?
Yes. We cut out the failed sealant, fit backing and reseal with a flexible product.
What if the leak is not the sealant?
Then we explain what we’ve found. A plumber or fitter may be needed before any new sealant goes on.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
The process
Once we are 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 for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere like Capel Cross needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
- Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
