About our remedial sealant in Frindsbury
A joint that keeps letting you down needs more than another bead. Send pictures when you ring 0345 464 0079 or email us. We work on leaking tray & enclosure joints, expansion joints and botched or over-sealed joints, and people most often call us about mould trapped under a layer of silicone and over-sealed joints coming away.
Smaller places like Frindsbury still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t add new sealant on top of old
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Check ceilings under showers for marks
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
Keep the room ventilated: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.
Mould under a second layer of sealant keeps growing out of sight. When it finally shows, the whole bead needs to come out.
The process
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied from start to finish. A visit to Frindsbury is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you are ready, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Your questions about remedial sealant in Frindsbury
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Strood station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Will you come out to Frindsbury?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. We take our time over removal, especially on acrylic, enamel and uPVC.
Do you guarantee remedial jobs?
Yes. Our 12-month guarantee covers the work.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
How long does remedial resealing take?
Allow a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. You’ll know the timing when we quote.
Why act early in Frindsbury
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but not by much: the work takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. In a smaller place like Frindsbury, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why us?
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- Colour picked to suit the job
- We agree the colour with you first
- More than 20 years in sealant work

Remedial sealant around Frindsbury
Frindsbury is close to 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. Frindsbury has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
For an older house near a landmark such as All Saints Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Rented homes near Strood station change hands often, and botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.
Frindsbury is about 1 mile north-east of Rochester, in Medway. Frindsbury gets the same service as everywhere we cover: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Common problems we fix in Frindsbury
Joint depth matters. Sealant packed too deep, or stuck to the back of the joint as well as the sides, cannot stretch, and tears at the first real movement. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it.
The most common problems we see are:
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- A second bead peeling off the first
If you look after a building such as English Martyrs' Catholic Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
What your quote should include
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Are they insured?
- What happens if the job turns out different
- What product goes in the joint
How we quote for remedial sealant
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- The amount of work
- The type of sealant required
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Mould in or behind the old joints
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Where the property is
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved.
What we cannot put right
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t solve:
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
