How it works
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere like Kintbury needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
How to prepare
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Clear the area around the work
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Remedial sealant in Kintbury
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 a shower that leaks however often it’s resealed and kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop, we can help, on botched or over-sealed joints, expansion joints and shrunken worktop sealant alike.
For a small place like Kintbury, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Failed movement joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Expansion joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Remedial sealant around Kintbury
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.
If you let a flat or house near Kintbury station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Schools such as Kintbury St Mary's C.E. Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What happens if it’s left?
Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint does not reach what’s underneath. The layers have to come out, and the joint treated and dried before resealing. In a small place like Kintbury, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Leaking trays & enclosures
A shower that leaks after resealing often has a tray that moves or an enclosure sealed on the wrong side. Both are checked before we reseal.
Windows & doors
Wrong-coloured or messy mastic can be replaced for appearance too, in a colour that suits the frame.
How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Find out why the sealant failed first
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
Watch the joint over the first few weeks, particularly where the original failure was caused by movement. If anything changes, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Mould under a second layer of sealant keeps growing out of sight. When it finally shows, the whole bead needs to come out.
