Remedial sealant in Holton, done properly
Not every leak is a sealant leak. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. If that’s what we find, we’ll tell you rather than reseal something that won’t fix it. If you’re dealing with thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles and sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted, we can help, on expansion joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and shrunken worktop sealant alike.
Being in a small place like Holton makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again.
Common questions in Holton
Is Holton in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes, Holton is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Do you cover smaller places like Holton?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Normally, yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available for many products, and we agree the colour with you before we start.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Can you remove sealant that’s been put over old sealant?
Yes. It’s slower than a standard reseal, because every layer has to come out cleanly, but it’s the only way the new joint will last.
Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?
Yes. First we check whether the leak is the sealant at all, then the joints are stripped and resealed.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes. The old bead is cut and lifted with tools that suit the surface, and the residue is cleaned away. Any existing damage is pointed out before we start.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
What else we do in Holton
What affects the quote in Holton
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How much there is to do
- The product the joint needs
- The number of rooms or windows
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- The address or postcode of the job
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- The rough size of the job
- What’s wrong with the joints now
To get a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the location and a short description of the problem. We’ll send you a clear quote before any work starts.
How the visit works
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere as small as Holton, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
How to get a quote
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you’re ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

How the job changes by surface
Windows & doors
Wrong-coloured or messy mastic can be replaced for appearance too, matched to the frame colour.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould that has grown into silicone doesn’t clean out for good. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried ahead of a new anti-fungal bead.
What happens if it’s left?
Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint doesn’t reach what’s underneath. Removal is the only way to get at it, and the joint treated and dried before resealing. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Holton, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- More than 20 years in sealant work

What remedial sealant looks like in Holton
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wheatley Park School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For an older house near a landmark such as The Granary Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
