How we handle remedial sealant in Earlswood
Movement and expansion joints fail when the sealant can’t stretch. We cut out the failed sealant and set the depth with backing, before resealing with a flexible product suited to the movement. Common call-outs are for black mould underneath the bead and smears and lumps from a botched reseal, on failed movement joints, expansion joints and shrunken worktop sealant.
Around Earlswood, you will mostly find houses and bungalows, some older and some much newer. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Earlswood and across Surrey.

The process
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out and we leave things clean and tidy. A visit to Earlswood is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention any tricky access

Advice
When to call us in Earlswood
Some joints fail because water is reaching them from behind. A slow leak behind the tiles soaks the joint from the back, so the silicone goes mouldy or lets go.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
Schools such as St John's Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included
- Whether VAT is included
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether you can choose the colour
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
If you manage several properties in or around Earlswood, several properties can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and photos by email help.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Does remedial work come with a guarantee?
Yes. Every job comes with our one-year guarantee.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Is it messy?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.
What should I tell you?
Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
- Deal with small splits early
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
Where we have pointed out another fault, have it put right, because the new sealant cannot hold back a problem underneath.
Mould under a second layer of sealant keeps growing out of sight. By the time it shows through, the joint is well past saving.
Surface by surface
Leaking trays & enclosures
A shower that leaks after resealing often has a tray that moves or an enclosure sealed on the wrong side. We check both before any new sealant goes on.
Movement & expansion joints
A sealant stuck to the back of the joint can’t stretch. Backing stops that, so the sealant grips the two sides only.
