Landlords, agents and businesses in Eythorne
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What remedial sealant looks like in Eythorne
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Eythorne Elvington Community Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near Church of St Peter and St Paul, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Leave it or put it right?
It’s easy to scratch acrylic, enamel or an uPVC frame cutting out old sealant, and any film left behind stops new sealant sticking. Careful stripping is where most of our time goes. Around Eythorne, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Different surfaces, different methods
Windows & doors
Wrong-coloured or messy mastic can be replaced for appearance too, matched to the frame colour.
Leaking trays & enclosures
A shower that leaks after resealing often has a tray that moves or an enclosure sealed on the wrong side. Both are checked before any new sealant goes on.

Questions from Eythorne
Will you come out to Eythorne?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is Eythorne in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Eythorne is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and we will quote it together.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels across Kent.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can you match the sealant colour?
In most cases you can choose. We’ll tell you which colours the right product comes in.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
The process
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can carry on as normal. The job usually takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In a small place like Eythorne, access is normally the main thing to plan. 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.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
- Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.
Preparing for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any tricky access

Signs you need remedial sealant in Eythorne
One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. New silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so the new layer peels, and damp and mould settle between them.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
Rented homes near Shepherds Well station change hands often, and failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- When the joint can take water or movement
