Remedial sealant in Malting Green: local notes
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
In the older streets around Church of St Andrew, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Letting a property close to Colchester Town station? Then failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

What sealant work cannot fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- A tray or bath that is cracked
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Why it’s worth doing now in Malting Green
Remedial work takes longer than a straight reseal, but not by much: the work takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. Older cottages and farmhouses around Malting Green can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll talk you through it.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
What we are called out for in Malting Green
Using the wrong product is a common cause: caulk where it gets wet, rigid sealant where things move, or an acetoxy silicone on a surface it can mark. None of them last.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
Schools such as Alderman Blaxill School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
What your quote should include
- What product goes in the joint
- Are they insured?
- How much experience the applicator has
- Whether you can choose the colour
Malting Green questions
Can you do remedial sealant in Malting Green?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Malting Green is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you cover smaller places like Malting Green?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
When is the sealant fully cured?
Cure times vary by product and the conditions. We tell you how long to leave it before we go.
Can you remove sealant that is been put over old sealant?
Yes. Stripping layered sealant takes longer than a normal reseal, but it’s what makes the new bead last.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Most of the time, yes. We will explain which colours are available and agree one before we start.
The process
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere like Malting Green needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by checking the joint for movement, leaks and the reason it failed.
- We strip the joint completely, removing any layers below.
- We clean the joint, treat any mould and let it dry.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- The new joint is tooled neatly and we explain anything else we found.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will come back to you with a quote.
