How we handle remedial sealant in Charing Heath
If a joint has been resealed and is leaking again, it’s worth a proper look. It helps to have pictures when you call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email, and say how long ago it was last done. If you have caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area and movement joints that have split or pulled away, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Charing Heath, 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.
Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

Do you need remedial sealant in Charing Heath?
Joint depth matters. Sealant packed too deep, or stuck to the back of the joint as well as the sides, can’t stretch, 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:
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
If you live in an older home near Church of the Holy Trinity, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. For a village or hamlet like Charing Heath, 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.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?
Yes. Repeat leaks usually come from over-sealing, movement or water getting in elsewhere, and we deal with the cause first.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
How long should I leave it?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint before we leave.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Do not wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.
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.
What happens if it’s left?
A failed seal rarely means a new bathroom. If the bath, tray and tiles are sound, remedial resealing generally puts it right. If they’re not, we’ll tell you. In a small place like Charing Heath, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
