How we handle remedial sealant in Hythe
Not every leak is a sealant leak. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. If you have worktop sealant that has shrunk and split and mould trapped under a layer of silicone, we can put it right.
In a town like Hythe, older streets sit alongside newer estates, so bathrooms range from long-standing suites to recent refits. Whatever their age, sealant and grout tend to go before anything else.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Why act early in Hythe
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but rarely a lot: it takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. In Hythe, as anywhere, most leaks start as a small gap in a joint, and early is when they’re cheapest and quickest to sort.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
How long should I leave it?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints.
What does remedial sealant cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Can you reseal a split movement joint?
Yes. Failed movement joints are cut out and resealed with backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Run the fan after every shower
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Never seal over old silicone
- Deal with small splits early
Keep the room ventilated: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.
Signs to act on: sealant lifting at the ends, a second bead visible on top of the first, black mould under the silicone, or stains below a bathroom. Each one is worth getting looked at.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage several properties in or around Hythe, several properties can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Remedial sealant around Hythe
Hythe is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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 Waterside Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Homes close to Church of St John include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Rented homes near Southampton Town Quay station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.

How the job changes by surface
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints often have grease and cleaning residue deep in them, so we spend extra time cleaning.
Movement & expansion joints
A sealant stuck to the back of the joint cannot stretch. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it, letting the sealant flex between the two faces.
