About our remedial sealant in Hinxhill Park
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. Only then can new sealant bond. We work on mouldy bath & shower sealant, botched or over-sealed joints and shrunken worktop sealant, and common reasons people get in touch are floor or wall movement joints that have failed and kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop.
Around Hinxhill Park, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Why it’s worth doing now in Hinxhill Park
A failed seal rarely means a new bathroom. If the bath, tray and tiles are sound, remedial resealing usually puts it right. If they’re not, we’ll tell you. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Hinxhill Park, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What else we do in Hinxhill Park
Remedial sealant around Hinxhill Park
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.
Managing a site like Willesborough Infant School? Then washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. Letting a property close to Ashford International station? Then botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.
Hinxhill Park is about 2 miles east of Ashford, in Kent.

Different surfaces, different methods
Over-sealed & botched joints
A botched joint can hide two or three layers of sealant, including the smears and film on surrounding tiles. New sealant needs a fully clean surface.
Windows & doors
Failed frame mastic is often hard, cracked and in several layers. All of it is cut out and the frame and wall cleaned before backing and resealing.
FAQs for Hinxhill Park
Do you cover smaller places like Hinxhill Park?
Yes, Hinxhill Park is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you cover Hinxhill Park for remedial sealant?
Yes, Hinxhill Park is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes, with care. We cut and lift the old sealant with tools suited to the surface, and the residue is cleaned away. Any existing damage is pointed out before we start.
Can you take off two layers of silicone?
Yes. We remove every layer; over-sealing fails because silicone will not bond to silicone.
How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?
Longer than a simple reseal, because every layer has to come out. Most jobs take a few hours, and we confirm the time with your quote.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Most of the time, yes. We’ll explain which colours are available.
How long should I leave it?
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 affects the cost of remedial sealant
There’s no set price list. The quote depends on:
- The type of sealant required
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Whether the work is at height
- The number and length of the joints
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- If someone has resealed it before
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Where the property is
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that’s easier. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll talk you through the work before giving you a price.
When it is not the sealant
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. The work normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. In a small place like Hinxhill Park, access is generally the main thing to plan. 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.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Related advice
Should I try it myself first?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the 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, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
What we are called out for in Hinxhill Park
How a joint is built matters as much as the product. Sealant packed too deep, or stuck to the back of the joint as well as the sides, can’t stretch, so it tears when the joint moves. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Torn expansion joints
- Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
In the older streets around Church of St Mary, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
