How the job changes by surface
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould that has grown into silicone doesn’t clean out for good. All of it comes out, and the joint is treated and dried ahead of a new anti-fungal bead.
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints hold grease and residue, so cleaning takes longer than in a bathroom.
About our remedial sealant in Holyfield
A movement joint stops working when its sealant splits or sets hard. The old sealant comes out and backing goes in to control the depth, then a flexible sealant matched to the movement goes in. We work on shrunken worktop sealant, mouldy bath & shower sealant and expansion joints, and the jobs we see most are products that weren’t meant for the joint and leaks that keep coming back after resealing.
Around Holyfield, 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.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

What remedial sealant looks like in Holyfield
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.
For landlords with property near Cheshunt station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

Is Holyfield in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Holyfield is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?

When is the sealant fully cured?
Cure times vary by product and the temperature. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

Landlord and commercial work in Holyfield
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll give you a quote.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Common problems we fix in Holyfield
Movement tears sealant that isn’t designed for it. A bath that flexes, a tray that rocks or a building joint that opens and closes split any bead that is too stiff or too thin.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A second bead peeling off the first
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
Managing a site like Turnford 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.

What happens on the day
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like Holyfield needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- Every layer of old sealant is cut and cleaned out.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- Where the joint moves, backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement go in.
- Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

When it is not the sealant
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
- Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
