Do you need remedial sealant in East Claydon?
Products get mixed up: caulk where it gets wet, rigid sealant where things move, or an acetoxy silicone on a surface it can mark. None of them last.
The problems people generally mention when they call include:
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Torn expansion joints
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as East Claydon Church of England School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Questions to ask before you book
- Is VAT in the price?
- The length of the guarantee
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- Who turns up on the day
Bathrooms and kitchens in East Claydon
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Different surfaces, different methods
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.
Movement & expansion joints
A sealant stuck to the back of the joint cannot stretch. Backing stops that, letting the sealant flex between the two faces.
What sealant work cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A tray or bath that is cracked
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
- Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.
What we seal
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Expansion joints

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can be quoted together.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.
The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. In a small place like East Claydon, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- 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.
- You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about any water getting in

Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we are fully insured.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties at once.
What if resealing won’t fix my leak?
That’s why we look for the cause first. If the fault is elsewhere, you’ll know before any work is done.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes, with care. The old bead is cut and lifted with tools that suit the surface, and the residue is cleaned away. Any existing damage is pointed out before work begins.
Can I do it myself?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
