Gomshall homes and their sealant
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 landlords with property near Gomshall station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. Homes close to The Church of St James include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Shere CofE Aided Infant School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

How we handle remedial sealant in Gomshall
Some sealant jobs aren’t a simple reseal, because someone has already had a go. Silicone laid over silicone, smears across tiles, the wrong product in a moving joint or mould trapped underneath all need stripping out before the joint can be done properly. We work on leaking tray & enclosure joints, failed movement joints and botched or over-sealed joints, and the jobs we see most are a second bead peeling off the first and black mould underneath the bead.
For a small place like Gomshall, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.

What affects the cost of remedial sealant
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- When we can work, for business premises
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether the work is at height
- The number of rooms or windows
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
- Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Expansion joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Failed movement joints
Surface by surface
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints often have grease and cleaning residue deep in them, so cleaning takes longer than in a bathroom.
Movement & expansion joints
Bonding on three sides is a common reason movement joints tear. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it, so the sealant grips the two sides only.
Leave it or put it right?
A joint that has failed twice will fail again unless the cause is dealt with. Taking time to find the cause, whether it’s movement, a leak or the wrong product, is what stops it happening again. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Gomshall, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
