Typical jobs include over-sealed joints coming away and black mould underneath the bead, across leaking tray & enclosure joints, botched or over-sealed joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Do not add new sealant on top of old
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
If we’ve found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, because the new sealant cannot hold back a problem underneath.
A failing joint rarely gets better on its own. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into whatever is behind or below. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.
What affects the quote in Chavey Down
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The number and length of the joints
- Mould in or behind the old joints
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Whether it’s a home or a business
To get a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the location and a short description of the problem. We will send you a clear quote before any work starts.
When to call us in Chavey Down
One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. New silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so the new layer peels, and damp and mould settle between them.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
If you let a flat or house near Martins Heron station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

What else we do in Chavey Down
What we cannot put right
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler
- Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
- Movement from fittings that are not supported
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Expansion joints

- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Shrunken worktop sealant
How it works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out, depending on how much there is to do. Somewhere like Chavey Down needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip 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.

Why act early in Chavey Down
