About our remedial sealant in Kenley
If a joint has been resealed and is leaking again, it’s worth a proper look. It helps to have photos when you call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email, and say how long ago it was last done. Typical jobs include a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed and floor or wall movement joints that have failed, across botched or over-sealed joints, failed movement joints and shrunken worktop sealant.
London’s water is hard, so limescale builds up along sealant lines, in grout and on fittings. In Kenley, remedial sealant is as much about a room looking cared for as about keeping water out.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What remedial sealant looks like in Kenley
London has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early.

Quotes for remedial sealant in Kenley
We do not publish a price list. The quote depends on:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number and length of the joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Roughly how big the job is
- Where the property is
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
More services for Kenley
Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How the job changes by surface
Leaking trays & enclosures
A cracked tray, failed valve or leaking waste needs a different fix. We say so rather than reseal.
Movement & expansion joints
A sealant stuck to the back of the joint can’t stretch. Backing rod or bond-breaker tape prevents it, letting the sealant flex between the two faces.
Signs you need remedial sealant in Kenley
Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, so it starts lifting sooner than it should.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Black mould underneath the bead
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
For landlords with property near Kenley station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

What happens on the day
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. In Kenley, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- We tool the joint and tell you about anything else that needs attention.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Run the fan after every shower
- Never seal over old silicone
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
- Find out why the sealant failed first
Where we’ve pointed out another fault, have it put right, because the new sealant can’t hold back a problem underneath.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
Questions from Kenley
Could a tired shower seal in my Kenley flat affect the neighbours below?
It can, yes: water that gets past a split bead or cracked grout often runs under the tray and shows on the ceiling below. Replacing the sealant and grout before that happens is much less trouble than repairing a neighbour’s ceiling.
Is parking an issue for remedial sealant in Kenley?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we are fully insured.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
We help you choose a colour that suits. The product needed can limit the range.
Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?
Yes. First we check whether the leak is the sealant at all, then strip and reseal the joints.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
