About our remedial sealant in Godmersham
Remedial work is what we do when sealant has failed or been done badly. New sealant over old, smeared beads, unsuitable products and hidden mould all need stripping out before the joint can be done properly. If you have black mould underneath the bead and wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones, we can put it right, on botched or over-sealed joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and failed movement joints alike.
Homes around Godmersham are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

Quotes for remedial sealant in Godmersham
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Access and height
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Asking for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Where the property is
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. In a small place like Godmersham, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice
Bathrooms and kitchens in Godmersham
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you let a flat or house near Chilham station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. Homes close to Church of St Lawrence include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

FAQs for Godmersham
Is Godmersham within the area you cover?
Yes. Godmersham is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you cover Godmersham for remedial sealant?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Godmersham is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. We take our time over removal, particularly on softer surfaces like acrylic.
Is remedial work guaranteed?
Yes, for 12 months. Where we have flagged another fault, it needs fixing for the joint to last.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Godmersham and across Kent. Several sites can go on one quote, and we are fully insured for the work.
Why deal with it now?
Ripping out a bathroom isn’t generally needed. When the fittings are sound, stripping and resealing the joints is often enough. Where something else has failed, you’ll hear it from us. Around Godmersham, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

Aftercare tips
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
- Find out why the sealant failed first
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
Where we have pointed out another fault, have it put right, or the new joint may fail again.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
