DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
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, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
About our remedial sealant in Chaldon
Remedial work is what we do when sealant has failed or been done badly. New sealant over old, smeared beads, unsuitable products and hidden mould all need stripping out. We are often asked to deal with dark patches showing through the sealant and sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared, across expansion joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.
Being in a small place like Chaldon makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

What else we do in Chaldon
What happens if it’s left?
Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint does not reach what’s underneath. Removal is the only way to get at it, and the joint treated and dried before resealing. Older cottages and farmhouses around Chaldon can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

Remedial sealant around Chaldon
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Schools such as St Peter and St Paul CofE 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. If you live in an older home near Church of St Peter and St Paul, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For landlords with property near Caterham station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

What we can’t put right
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
- A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe
- Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before you book.
Where we work in Chaldon
- Expansion joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Failed movement joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
- Find out why the sealant failed first
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
If the joint ever needs renewing, have it cut out, not sealed over. Over-sealing is how many remedial jobs start.
Do not keep resealing the same joint. Get the cause found first, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.
Your questions about remedial sealant in Chaldon
I let a flat near Caterham station. Can you help?

Do you cover Chaldon for remedial sealant?

Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
What if the leak is not the sealant?
Then we explain what we have found. You may need a plumber or bathroom fitter before any new sealant goes on.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
How long does remedial resealing take?
It takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. We’ll give you a timescale when we quote.
Can you remove sealant that is been put over old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the layers and clean off the film, then the joint is resealed once.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
What happens on the day
We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. For a village or hamlet like Chaldon, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. 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.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any tricky access
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
