About our remedial sealant in Maplescombe
With more than 20 years’ experience, our applicators have seen most of the ways sealant can fail. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and remedial work carries our 12-month guarantee. We are often asked to deal with kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop and torn expansion joints, on mouldy bath & shower sealant, shrunken worktop sealant and failed movement joints.
Homes around Maplescombe are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What affects the cost of remedial sealant
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The size of the job
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- If someone has resealed it before
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Any access issues, like height or stairs

Can you do remedial sealant in Maplescombe?
Yes, Maplescombe is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you work for landlords with property near Eynsford station?

Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
Can you remove sealant that is been put over old sealant?
Yes. Both layers come out; new silicone doesn’t bond to old silicone, which is why over-sealing fails.
How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?
That depends on how many layers there are and how many joints. You’ll have a timescale before any work begins.

Remedial sealant around Maplescombe
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.
Around Maplescombe, as everywhere, remedial sealant is only as good as the preparation behind it. Letting a property close to Eynsford station? Then botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Run the fan after every shower
- Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Deal with small splits early
Clean gently: a mild cleaner and a soft cloth, with no blades or scourers.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Failed movement joints
- Expansion joints
Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
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.
How the job changes by surface
Movement & expansion joints
Movement joints in floors, walls and façades need a flexible sealant set to the right depth. We remove the failed sealant, fit backing and reseal.
Worktops & kitchens
If a worktop moves when you lean on it, the sealant will keep splitting. That needs refixing before resealing, which we will point out.
