DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Remedial sealant in Paglesham Eastend, done properly
A joint that keeps letting you down needs more than another bead. It helps to have pictures when you phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. If you are dealing with black mould underneath the bead and movement joints that have split or pulled away, we can put it right.
Homes around Paglesham Eastend are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Why deal with it now?
Repeat failures have a cause. Finding it, whether movement, water from elsewhere or an unsuitable product, ends the cycle. Older cottages and farmhouses around Paglesham Eastend can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

How the visit works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere like Paglesham Eastend 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 protect the surfaces around the joint.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Keep an eye on the ceiling below the bathroom
- Do not point over movement joints
Go easy on the new sealant: no scraping, scouring pads or harsh chemicals.
Mould under a second layer of sealant keeps growing out of sight. When it finally shows, the whole bead needs to come out.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Paglesham Eastend
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.
Homes close to St Peters Mission Hall include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

When something else is needed
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Sealant in an older building that needs testing for asbestos first
