East Farleigh homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Schools such as East Farleigh 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.

How we handle remedial sealant in East Farleigh
A joint that keeps failing generally has a reason. Movement, the wrong product or a leak from somewhere else will beat any new bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. We work on expansion joints, shrunken worktop sealant and failed movement joints, and people most often call us about a second bead peeling off the first and movement joints that have split or pulled away.
In a village or hamlet like East Farleigh, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
Watch the joint over the first few weeks, particularly where the original failure was caused by movement. Should anything change, phone 0345 464 0079 or send 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.
Your questions about remedial sealant in East Farleigh
Can you do remedial sealant in East Farleigh?

Do you work for landlords with property near East Farleigh station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
What does remedial sealant cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.
How long does remedial resealing take?
A little longer than a standard reseal. For most joints, it’s a few hours.
Can you take off two layers of silicone?
Yes. It’s slower than a standard reseal, because every layer has to come out cleanly, but it’s what makes the new bead last.
Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?
Yes. We will take all the sealant out, look for why it failed and reseal it properly.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
- Movement from fittings that are not supported
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Expansion joints
- Failed movement joints
Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
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 fails, we can still redo it.
Surface by surface
Movement & expansion joints
Bonding on three sides is a common reason movement joints tear. Backing stops that, so the sealant grips the two sides only.
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints often have grease and cleaning residue deep in them, so we spend extra time cleaning before resealing.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Landlords and agents in East Farleigh can book us as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere as small as East Farleigh, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
- Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
How to prepare
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Move anything stored near the joints

Related advice
Why act early in East Farleigh
Mould under a bead can’t be reached by cleaning. The layers have to come out, so the joint can be treated and resealed. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like East Farleigh, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
