Common questions in Mulberry Green
Do you work for landlords with property near Marks Tey station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Mulberry Green in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes, Mulberry Green is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes. The old bead is cut and lifted with tools that suit the surface, and the residue is cleaned away. We point out any damage that’s already there.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Can you take off two layers of silicone?
Yes. We cut out all the layers and clean off the film, then the joint is resealed once.
Do you guarantee remedial jobs?
Yes. Every job comes with our one-year guarantee.
How long does remedial resealing take?
That depends on how many layers there are and how many joints. We will tell you before work begins.
About our remedial sealant in Mulberry Green
Decorators’ caulk in a shower, bathroom silicone on a window, a rigid filler in a movement joint will not last, however tidy it looks. Out it comes, and in goes a sealant suited to the job. We work on expansion joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and shrunken worktop sealant, and the jobs we see most are thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles and dark patches showing through the sealant.
Being in a small place like Mulberry Green makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
Keep an eye on the joint at first, especially if movement was the problem. If anything changes, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
If a joint has failed more than once, stop resealing it. Get the cause found first, or the next bead will go the same way.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Mulberry Green
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.
If you look after a building such as The Stanway School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. If you let a flat or house near Marks Tey station, botched sealant from a previous quick fix is easier to strip out between tenants.

What we’re called out for in Mulberry Green
One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. Silicone does not bond to silicone, so the new layer peels, and damp and mould settle between them.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Torn expansion joints
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

What affects the quote in Mulberry Green
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The number of rooms or windows
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Which sealant suits the joint
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What to tell us for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Where the property is
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
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’ll come back to you with a quote.
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- A tray or bath that is cracked
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Failed movement joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Expansion joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What happens on the day
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere as small as Mulberry Green, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any tricky access
How to get a quote
We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details and send photos if you have them.
Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Mulberry Green
Another bead over the top won’t fix a failed joint. It doesn’t grip the old layer, leaving the leak in place and one more layer to cut out later. In a small place like Mulberry Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.
