Remedial sealant in Crooked Billet
Some sealant jobs aren’t a simple reseal, because someone has already had a go. New sealant over old, smeared beads, unsuitable products and hidden mould all have to come out. If you have a second bead peeling off the first and black mould underneath the bead, we can help, whatever the surface.
Across London, a large share of homes are flats, conversions or mansion blocks, and many bathrooms sit right above someone else’s ceiling. That makes worn sealant and cracked grout in Crooked Billet more than a cosmetic job.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

What affects the quote in Crooked Billet
There’s no set price list. What we look at:
- The number of rooms or windows
- The product the joint needs
- Any mould that needs treating
- Access and height
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: 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
You don’t need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The type of property
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job.
When to call us in Crooked Billet
One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. Silicone doesn’t bond to silicone, so the new layer peels, and damp and mould settle between them.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
Homes close to Christ Church include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Are they insured?
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
- Act on a lifting corner right away
- Keep the room well ventilated
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
Watch the joint over the first few weeks, especially if movement was the problem. If anything changes, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
If a joint has failed more than once, stop resealing it. Have someone find out why, or the next bead will go the same way.
What the job involves on each surface
Over-sealed & botched joints
Botched joints sometimes have damaged edges from earlier scraping. We take care not to make it worse, and point out any existing damage.
Leaking trays & enclosures
If the tray is cracked, or the leak is from the valve or waste, sealant won’t fix it. We say so rather than reseal.
When something else is needed
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Expansion joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Failed movement joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
Crooked Billet questions
Do you work in hotels near Crooked Billet?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
I let a flat near Raynes Park station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
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.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Generally, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we will agree it with you first.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Do you work in Crooked Billet?
Yes. We cover Crooked Billet and the rest of Greater London. To book, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Leave it or put it right?
Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but not by much: the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Crooked Billet, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What you get with us
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- Full insurance on every job
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- Colour picked to suit the job

The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The visit itself normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied, depending on the amount of work. In a London area like Crooked Billet, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.
- We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
