Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Forest Green
Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. Every layer is cut out, the residue cleaned off and the joint degreased, taking care not to scratch the surfaces around it. New sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. If you’re dealing with leaks that keep coming back after resealing and dark patches showing through the sealant, we can help.
Being in a small place like Forest Green makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Find out why the sealant failed first
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
Leave the new joint to cure fully before it gets wet or moves: normally around 24 hours, or as long as we advise.
Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into whatever is behind or below. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.
Leave it or put it right?
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but not by much: the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. Older cottages and farmhouses around Forest Green can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.

What sealant work cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
- A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Failed movement joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Expansion joints
Different surfaces, different methods
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould can sit behind the silicone, not just in it. We treat the exposed joint once the bead is out so the new sealant starts clean.
Movement & expansion joints
Movement joints in floors, walls and façades need a flexible sealant set to the right depth. We remove the failed sealant, fit backing and reseal.

What we’re called out for in Forest Green
Joint depth matters. A bead bonded on three sides, or laid too thick, cannot flex, so it tears when the joint moves. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it.
Look out for these signs:
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
In the older streets around Holy Trinity, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
