About our remedial sealant in Chegworth
A movement joint stops working when its sealant splits or sets hard. We cut out the failed sealant and set the depth with backing, before resealing with a flexible product suited to the movement. If you’re dealing with thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles and caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Being in a small place like Chegworth makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

Different surfaces, different methods
Worktops & kitchens
Old kitchen sealant pulls back from the wall over time. It’s cut out, degreased and resealed in a colour to suit.
Movement & expansion joints
Bonding on three sides is a common reason movement joints tear. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it, letting the sealant flex between the two faces.
Remedial sealant around Chegworth
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Schools such as Harrietsham Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. If you let a flat or house near Harrietsham station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Margaret, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

What sealant work can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
- Movement from fittings that are not supported
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will quote.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Don’t add new sealant on top of old
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Do not point over movement joints
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
Clean gently: a mild cleaner and a soft cloth, with no blades or scourers.
Do not keep resealing the same joint. Get the cause found first, otherwise the next attempt will fail too.
What affects the quote in Chegworth
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The number and length of the joints
Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Roughly how big the job is
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Photos by email, if that is easy
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll take it from there.
Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
What do you need from me for a quote?

How the visit works
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out, including the tidy-up. In a small place like Chegworth, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- 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
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
