DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s 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 getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
How we handle remedial sealant in Crowborough
Decorators’ caulk in a shower, bathroom silicone on a window, a rigid filler in a movement joint fails however neatly it’s applied. We take it out and use a sealant made for that joint. We work on expansion joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and shrunken worktop sealant, and people most often call us about a second bead peeling off the first and smears and lumps from a botched reseal.
Around Crowborough, it’s mostly busy family bathrooms and kitchens, where sealant and grout take a lot of daily wear. The usual signs are mould in the bead, gaps by the sink and grout that is cracked or stained.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

What we cannot put right
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
- Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Failed movement joints

Do you work for landlords with property near Crowborough station?

Is Crowborough in your area for remedial sealant?

What if resealing will not fix my leak?

We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?
The number of joints and layers decides it. We’ll tell you before we start.
Is remedial work guaranteed?
Yes. You get our 12-month guarantee.
Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Don’t point over movement joints
- Don’t wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
- Check trays and worktops don’t move
Watch the joint over the first few weeks, especially if movement was the problem. If anything changes, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.

Why deal with it now?
DIY removal often leaves scratches and a film of residue, and any film left behind stops new sealant sticking. Careful removal is most of a remedial job. Black mould and gaps in sealant do not fix themselves, and in a busy household in Crowborough they spread with every shower and every downpour. Now is the easy time to put it right.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.

What remedial sealant looks like in Crowborough
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Schools such as St Marys Catholic Primary 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. For an older house near a landmark such as The Parish Church of All Saints, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Rented homes near Crowborough station change hands often, and botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.
