Why deal with it now?
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but not by much: it takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. Around Herne Pound, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
- Check trays and worktops do not move
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
Where we have pointed out another fault, have it put right, because the new sealant cannot hold back a problem underneath.
Warning signs: 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 Herne Pound
Remedial sealant around Herne Pound
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around St Lawrence's Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Rented homes near Wateringbury station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty. Schools such as Mereworth Community Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What we do, step by step

If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.

Advice
How the job changes by surface
Windows & doors
A frame that keeps leaking may not be the mastic. We check the joint and tell you if it looks to be something else.
Over-sealed & botched joints
A thick bead smeared across tiles often hides mould or gaps. Taking it back shows what’s underneath, and then we reseal it neatly.

DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
