How we handle remedial sealant in Kent Street
Remedial jobs in Kent Street normally fall into a few patterns: sealant over sealant, mould under the bead, leaks that come back and movement joints that have split. We strip each one back and start from scratch. If you have decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower and sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted, we can put it right.
Around Kent Street, 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.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Kent Street
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 site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ark Helenswood Academy, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Leave it or put it right?
Mould under a bead can’t be reached by cleaning. The layers have to come out, so the joint can be treated and resealed. Around Kent Street, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

How long before the joint can be used?
Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will give you the cure time for the product we used.
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.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Can I choose the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we agree the colour with you before work begins.
DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
What the job involves on each surface
Over-sealed & botched joints
Previous removal attempts can leave scratches or gouges. We work carefully to avoid adding to it, and point out any existing damage.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Repeat mould usually points to a damp, poorly aired room. We’ll reseal and tell you if extraction looks to be the issue.
Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
- Find out why the sealant failed first
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Act on a lifting corner straight away
Don’t let anyone seal over it later. Over-sealing is how many remedial jobs start, so the old bead should always come out first.
Movement joints that have split let water into the structure, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
