The work normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Hurst Green, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we work out whether the problem is the sealant, movement or a leak.
- 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.

Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Hurst Green
A movement joint stops working when its sealant splits or sets hard. We cut out the failed sealant and set the depth with backing, before resealing with a flexible product suited to the movement. Common call-outs are for sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface and wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones, on botched or over-sealed joints, failed movement joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.
Around Hurst Green, 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.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Hurst Green homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For an older house near a landmark such as St Agatha's Hall, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Managing a site like Hurst Green Infant School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How the job changes by surface
Movement & expansion joints
Bonding on three sides is a common reason movement joints tear. Backing stops that, so the sealant grips the two sides only.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould can sit behind the silicone, not just in it. Once it’s all removed, the joint is treated.
Signs you need remedial sealant in Hurst Green
Joint depth matters. Sealant packed too deep, or stuck to the back of the joint as well as the sides, cannot stretch, so it tears when the joint moves. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Black mould underneath the bead
For landlords with property near Hurst Green station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

When it isn’t the sealant
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray or bath that’s cracked
- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Failed movement joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Expansion joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Deal with small splits early
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
- Do not add new sealant on top of old
Clean gently: no scraping, scouring pads or harsh chemicals.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.

What affects the cost of remedial sealant
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Mould in or behind the old joints
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Where the property is
- Roughly how big the job is
- How we’d reach the joints
For a quote, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. We will give you a clear price before any work starts.
Why deal with it now?
Ripping out a bathroom is not normally needed. If the bath, tray and tiles are sound, remedial resealing generally puts it right. If they’re not, we’ll tell you. Around Hurst Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, 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.
