Remedial Sealant in Chainhurst
Our applicators work in Chainhurst on removing failed, mouldy or leaking sealant and putting it right. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and a 12-month guarantee.
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Black mould underneath the bead
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
The process
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out, including the tidy-up. In a small place like Chainhurst, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the work
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
Getting a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.

Remedial sealant in Chainhurst
Water on the floor does not always mean failed silicone. Cracked trays, leaking wastes and faulty valves often look like a sealant problem. If that’s what we find, we will tell you rather than reseal something that will not fix it. We are often asked to deal with beads that never stuck properly and over-sealed joints coming away, on botched or over-sealed joints, shrunken worktop sealant and failed movement joints.
In a village or hamlet like Chainhurst, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.
Leave it or put it right?
Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint doesn’t reach what’s underneath. The layers have to come out. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Chainhurst, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Why book with us
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting

What affects the quote in Chainhurst
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- The number of rooms or windows
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The size of the job
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Whether it has been sealed before
Need a quote? Please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the job. You’ll know what we plan to do, and what it will cost, before any work begins.

When to call us in Chainhurst
Joint depth matters. Sealant packed too deep, or stuck to the back of the joint as well as the sides, cannot stretch, so it tears when the joint moves. Backing sets the depth and stops that.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- Torn expansion joints
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
Around Chainhurst, as everywhere, remedial sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it.
What your quote should include
- Whether you can choose the colour
- What insurance they hold
- How long the guarantee is
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant

How the job changes by surface
Over-sealed & botched joints
Thick, smeared sealant looks messy and hides problems. Taking it back shows what’s underneath, and then we reseal it neatly.
Leaking trays & enclosures
When failed joints are the cause, they’re all cut out and renewed, including the screen profile and tray edges.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
