High Brooms Remedial Sealant
Removing failed, mouldy or leaking sealant and putting it right for homeowners, landlords and businesses in High Brooms. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
How the job changes by surface
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Black mould inside the bead won’t scrub out. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried ahead of a new anti-fungal bead.
Movement & expansion joints
Movement joints in floors, walls and façades need a flexible sealant set to the right depth. We remove the failed sealant, fit backing and reseal.
How we handle remedial sealant in High Brooms
Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. We cut out every layer, clear the residue and degrease the surfaces, without scratching tiles, trays or frames. New sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. If you have caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area and mould trapped under a layer of silicone, we can put it right, on expansion joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and shrunken worktop sealant alike.
In a smaller place like High Brooms, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, from older cottages to newer builds. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in High Brooms as everywhere else we work.

Bathrooms and kitchens in High Brooms
High Brooms has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you let a flat or house near High Brooms station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants. Managing a site like St John's Church of England 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 St Matthew's Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
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, then guaranteed for a year.
What sealant work can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will give you a quote.
We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Never seal over old silicone
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.
Signs to act on: peeling layers, mould showing through the bead, leaks after showering or cracks in a movement joint. Any of them means it’s time for remedial work.

How it works
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you. Surfaces next to the work are protected before work begins. The work usually takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. In a smaller place like High Brooms, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
