Remedial sealant & repairs in Kingswood, Kent
Removing failed, mouldy or leaking sealant and putting it right for homes and businesses in Kingswood and across Kent. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint

When to call us in Kingswood
How a joint is built matters as much as the product. 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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
Managing a site like Kingswood Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
What your quote should include
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Is the old sealant removed completely?

The wrong product in the wrong joint won’t last, however tidy it looks. Out it comes, and in goes a sealant suited to the job. If you have black mould underneath the bead and over-sealed joints coming away, we can help.
Around Kingswood, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Keep the room well ventilated
- Check trays and worktops do not move
Keep the room ventilated: run the fan during and after showers, or open a window.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.
What sealant work can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
- Water damage behind tiles that needs a tiler
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we seal
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant

Kingswood homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around Kingswood Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Rented homes near Harrietsham station change hands often, and botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

Will you come out to Kingswood?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Yes. If a joint has been filled with mortar or rigid filler, we rake it out where possible, and reseal with a flexible product.

No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
How the job changes by surface
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints hold grease and residue, so we spend extra time cleaning.
Movement & expansion joints
Movement joints in floors, walls and façades need a flexible sealant set to the right depth. Failed sealant is cut out, backing rod or tape is fitted and the joint resealed with a low-modulus product.
