Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll quote.
How we handle remedial sealant in Ebbsfleet
Getting old sealant out properly is slow, careful work. Every layer is cut out, the residue cleaned off and the joint degreased, without scratching tiles, trays or frames. New sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. If you have worktop sealant that has shrunk and split and a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed, we can help, whatever the surface.
Around Ebbsfleet, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Ebbsfleet questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Thanet Parkway station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Ebbsfleet?
Yes, Ebbsfleet is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours, and we agree the colour with you before any work starts.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?
Yes. There’s normally a reason: sealant over sealant, movement or another leak, and we deal with the cause first.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you will get one quote.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Do not add new sealant on top of old
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
Keep an eye on the joint at first, particularly where the original failure was caused by movement. If anything changes, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
A failing joint rarely gets better on its own. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into floors, walls or ceilings. Sorting it early limits the damage.
What happens if it’s left?
Another bead over the top will not fix a failed joint. It does not grip the old layer, leaving the leak in place and one more layer to cut out later. Around Ebbsfleet, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before we start.

What the job involves on each surface
Movement & expansion joints
Bonding on three sides is a common reason movement joints tear. Backing stops that, letting the sealant flex between the two faces.
Leaking trays & enclosures
Repeat shower leaks often come from a tray that flexes or an enclosure sealed in the wrong place. Both are checked before any new sealant goes on.
How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Ebbsfleet, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- 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.
- Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

What else we do in Ebbsfleet
DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Common problems we fix in Ebbsfleet
All sealant wears out eventually. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks, especially in damp, poorly aired rooms. At that point it has to come out.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Torn expansion joints
For landlords with property near Thanet Parkway station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.
