How we handle remedial sealant in Catherington
Water on the floor doesn’t always mean failed silicone. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. If you’re dealing with a second bead peeling off the first and leaks that keep coming back after resealing, we can help, on botched or over-sealed joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and failed movement joints alike.
In a village or hamlet like Catherington, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What we do, step by step
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. For a village or hamlet like Catherington, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Never seal over old silicone
- Keep the room well ventilated
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.
Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into whatever is behind or below. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will give you a quote.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
When to call us in Catherington
How a joint is built matters as much as the product. A bead bonded on three sides, or laid too thick, cannot flex, and tears at the first real movement. Backing sets the depth and stops that.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
In the older streets around Church of All Saints, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

What remedial sealant looks like in Catherington

Schools such as Catherington Church of England Infant School are buildings too, and 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.

Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
