Remedial sealant in Great Easton, done properly
If a joint fails again and again, something is causing it. Movement, the wrong product or a leak from somewhere else will defeat even a perfect bead. Finding that cause comes before any new sealant. We work on failed movement joints, shrunken worktop sealant and leaking tray & enclosure joints, and people most often call us about sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface and movement joints that have split or pulled away.
In a village or hamlet like Great Easton, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Will you come out to Great Easton?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.
Where are you based?

How long before the joint can be used?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We’ll tell you how long to leave the joint before we leave.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
What remedial sealant looks like in Great Easton
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you live in an older home near Church of St John and St Giles, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. If you look after a building such as Helena Romanes School and Sixth Form Centre, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What we are called out for in Great Easton
Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, and the joint starts to come away early.
The most common problems we see are:
- A second bead peeling off the first
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
For landlords with property near Stansted Airport station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- Is VAT in the price?
- What insurance they hold
- What product goes in the joint
Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
- Find out why the sealant failed first
- Don’t point over movement joints
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
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 the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
