Different surfaces, different methods
Windows & doors
Some leaks around windows come from the wall or the window itself. If the frame joint is not the cause, we will say so.
Worktops & kitchens
Old kitchen sealant pulls back from the wall over time. It’s cut out, degreased and resealed colour-matched to the worktop.
About our remedial sealant in Dallington
Remedial jobs in Dallington generally fall into a few patterns: over-sealed joints, hidden mould, repeat leaks and split movement joints. Each is stripped back and done again properly. If you have sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared and over-sealed joints coming away, we can help, whatever the surface.
Homes around Dallington are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Dallington: your questions answered
Is Dallington within the area you cover?
Yes. Dallington is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is remedial sealant in Dallington guaranteed?
All our work, in Dallington and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
When is the sealant fully cured?
It depends on the product. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.
Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?
Yes. We will take all the sealant out, look for why it failed and reseal it properly.
How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?
The number of joints and layers decides it. You will have a timescale before any work begins.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.
Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Act on a lifting corner straight away
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
- Check trays and worktops don’t move
- Find out why the sealant failed first
Give the new sealant its full cure time: usually around 24 hours, or as long as we advise.
A failing joint rarely gets better on its own. Each use pushes more water behind the bead, into whatever is behind or below. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.
What sealant work cannot fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Failed movement joints
- Expansion joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
What happens if it’s left?
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but rarely a lot: 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. Around Dallington, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Advice
Do you need remedial sealant in Dallington?
Water from somewhere else can ruin a good seal. A leaking valve, a failed waste or cracked grout feeds water behind the bead, and the sealant lifts or goes mouldy from underneath.
The most common problems we see are:
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Giles, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
What your quote should include
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Is the old sealant removed completely?

Bathrooms and kitchens in Dallington
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you look after a building such as Dallington Church of England Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
