Remedial sealant in Hickmans Green
If a joint fails again and again, something is causing it. A tray that moves, a worktop that isn’t fixed, the wrong sealant or water getting in elsewhere will defeat even a perfect bead. Finding that cause comes before any new sealant. If you are dealing with floor or wall movement joints that have failed and repeat leaks from the same joint, we can help, whatever the surface.
For a small place like Hickmans Green, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
- Deal with small splits early
- Check trays and worktops don’t move
- Find out why the sealant failed first
Where we have pointed out another fault, have it put right, because the new sealant can’t hold back a problem underneath.
Mould under a second layer of sealant keeps growing out of sight. When it finally shows, the whole bead needs to come out.
How the job changes by surface
Movement & expansion joints
Joints filled with mortar, grout or rigid filler cannot move. Where it can be raked out, we replace it with flexible sealant.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Repeat mould generally points to a damp, poorly aired room. Along with resealing, we will mention if the room needs better ventilation.
What remedial sealant looks like in Hickmans Green
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Selling station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty. In the older streets around St Barnabas, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
How the visit works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it generally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. In a small place like Hickmans Green, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
Before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access

Common problems we fix in Hickmans Green
A lot of failed joints have been sealed over rather than replaced. New silicone cannot stick to the old bead, so the top layer lifts and water and mould collect between the two.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
Schools such as Boughton-under-Blean and Dunkirk Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
