About our remedial sealant in Friday Street
The wrong product in the wrong joint fails however neatly it’s applied. Out it comes, and in goes a sealant suited to the job. If you are dealing with black mould underneath the bead and caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Friday Street, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

Leave it or put it right?
Another bead over the top will not fix a failed joint. It doesn’t grip the old layer, leaving the leak in place and one more layer to cut out later. Around Friday Street, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Friday Street: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Gomshall station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is Friday Street in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Friday Street is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need and we will quote it together.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?
Longer than a simple reseal, because every layer has to come out. Most jobs take a few hours.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Can failed expansion joints be resealed?
Yes. The depth is set with backing so the sealant only bonds to the two sides.
Do you guarantee remedial jobs?
Yes, with our one-year guarantee. If we have pointed out another problem, getting it fixed helps the new joint last.
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Run the fan after every shower
Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: use the extractor or open a window after showering.
Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into floors, walls or ceilings. Sorting it early limits the damage.
How the job changes by surface
Movement & expansion joints
A sealant stuck to the back of the joint can’t stretch. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it, so the sealant grips the two sides only.
Windows & doors
Frames resealed over the top end up with hard, layered mastic. All of it is cut out and the frame and wall cleaned before backing and resealing.
How we quote for remedial sealant
We do not publish a price list. The quote depends on:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How much there is to do
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether the work is at height
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- The type of property
- Whether it has been sealed before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- The address or postcode of the job
For remedial sealant in Friday Street, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. Tell us what the problem is and where, and you will get a clear quote before any work starts.
What remedial sealant looks like in Friday Street
Most of the South East has hard water, 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 Belmont Prep School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Homes close to Church of St James include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

What we are called out for in Friday Street
Movement tears sealant that isn’t designed for it. Flexing baths, rocking trays and building movement joints will split a rigid or thin bead.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
For landlords with property near Gomshall station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

When it isn’t the sealant
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
- Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
- Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

The process
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. It normally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Somewhere as small as Friday Street, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
- Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
