How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Parking in a town like Gravesend is normally straightforward, but tell us if there’s a driveway or any restrictions, and mention if the work is upstairs, in a flat or high on the outside.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

How we handle remedial sealant in Gravesend
A joint that keeps letting you down needs more than another bead. It helps to have pictures when you ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. If you are dealing with mould trapped under a layer of silicone and repeat leaks from the same joint, we can help, on botched or over-sealed joints, failed movement joints and expansion joints alike.
Gravesend mixes older houses with estates built more recently, and bathrooms range from decades-old suites to brand-new ones. Whatever their age, sealant and grout tend to go before anything else.
Every job is covered by a one-year guarantee.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
What we are called out for in Gravesend
Joints that move need sealant that can stretch. A bath that flexes, a tray that rocks or a building joint that opens and closes split any bead that’s too stiff or too thin.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Torn expansion joints
- Black mould underneath the bead
For landlords with property near Gravesend station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.
What your quote should include
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- How hidden problems are handled
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- When the joint can take water or movement
When it is not the sealant
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
- Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Expansion joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints

Remedial sealant around Gravesend
Gravesend 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. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Gravesend. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
If you look after a building such as Whitehill Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. If you live in an older home near Christ Church Milton, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

What affects the cost of remedial sealant
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Access and height
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
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, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- The address or postcode of the job
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job.
Why deal with it now?
Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but rarely a lot: the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent. Black mould and gaps in sealant do not fix themselves, and in a busy household in Gravesend they spread with every shower and every downpour. Now is the easy time to put it right.
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will talk you through it.
