How we handle remedial sealant in Lordington
A movement joint stops working when its sealant splits or sets hard. We cut out the failed sealant and set the depth with backing, before resealing with a flexible product suited to the movement. Typical jobs include dark patches showing through the sealant and movement joints that have split or pulled away, on mouldy bath & shower sealant, botched or over-sealed joints and shrunken worktop sealant.
Around Lordington, 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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Places near Lordington
Also in Lordington
Surface by surface
Movement & expansion joints
Bonding on three sides is a common reason movement joints tear. Backing stops that, so the sealant grips the two sides only.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Repeat mould normally points to a damp, poorly aired room. Along with resealing, we’ll mention if the room needs better ventilation.
What we’re called out for in Lordington
All sealant wears out eventually. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks. Then the only fix is removal and a new bead.
People usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Over-sealed joints coming away
For an older house near a landmark such as Racton Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Common questions in Lordington
Will you come out to Lordington?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is Lordington in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Lordington is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens if the problem is the tray or the plumbing?
We check for that before we reseal. If the fault is elsewhere, you will know before any work is done.
How much does remedial sealant cost in Lordington?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will give you a quote.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Never seal over old silicone
- Clean sealant with mild products only
Ventilation keeps mould away from the new bead: use the extractor or open a window after showering.
Signs to act on: peeling layers, mould showing through the bead, leaks after showering or cracks in a movement joint. Any of them means it’s time for remedial work.
Leave it or put it right?
Leaks that are left keep doing damage out of sight: soaked floorboards, ceiling stains below and blown plaster. By comparison, sorting the joint is quick. Older cottages and farmhouses around Lordington can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

How the visit works
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. For a village or hamlet like Lordington, the journey is planned in advance: 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.
- We look at how the sealant has failed and check for movement or a leak path.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to 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.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us about any water getting in
Ask for a quote
Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll take it from there.
