Remedial sealant & repairs in Hale, Medway
Problem with your failed sealant joints in Hale? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
- Never seal over old silicone
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: use the extractor or open a window after showering.
Signs to act on: sealant lifting at the ends, a second bead visible on top of the first, black mould under the silicone, or stains below a bathroom. Each one is worth getting looked at.

What else we do in Hale
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.
Quotes for remedial sealant in Hale
You will get a clear quote before work begins. It takes into account:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- When we can work, for business premises
- Which sealant suits the joint
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.
Helping us quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- How we’d reach the joints
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Hale
Hale 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. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Rented homes near Gillingham (Kent) station change hands often, and failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. Managing a site like Kingfisher Community Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For an older house near a landmark such as Christ Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Hale questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Gillingham (Kent) station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you cover Hale for remedial sealant?
Yes, Hale is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.
Is remedial work guaranteed?
Yes. You get our 12-month guarantee.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?
Yes, normally. First we check whether the leak is the sealant at all, then strip and reseal the joints.
Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?
Yes. Stripping layered sealant takes longer than a normal reseal, but it’s what makes the new bead last.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
The process
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere as small as Hale, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
How to get a quote
We quote each job on its own. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details, and pictures are welcome.
Advice
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. Older cottages and farmhouses around Hale can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.

How the job changes by surface
Windows & doors
A frame that keeps leaking may not be the mastic. If the frame joint is not the cause, we will say so.
Movement & expansion joints
Joints filled with mortar, grout or rigid filler can’t move. Where it can be raked out, we replace it with flexible sealant.
