How it works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself normally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as East Langdon, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Advice
Remedial sealant in East Langdon
Two decades of sealant work means we recognise most failures quickly. We are ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and every remedial job comes with a 12-month guarantee. We work on expansion joints, shrunken worktop sealant and failed movement joints, and common reasons people get in touch are a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed and sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface.
Somewhere as small as East Langdon, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

When it isn’t the sealant
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
- Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.

What affects the quote in East Langdon
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The number and length of the joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number of rooms or windows
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
Asking for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:
- The type of property
- The address or postcode of the job
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The rough size of the job
We do not publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What else we do in East Langdon
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
If we have found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, or the new joint may fail again.
Movement joints that have split let water into the structure, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
Bathrooms and kitchens in East Langdon
East Langdon is within about 3 miles of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Homes close to Church of St Augustine include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. If you let a flat or house near Martin Mill station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Langdon Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How the job changes by surface
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould that has grown into silicone does not clean out for good. All of it comes out, and the joint is treated and dried ahead of a new anti-fungal bead.
Windows & doors
A frame that keeps leaking may not be the mastic. We check the joint and tell you if it looks to be something else.
Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
