Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How we handle remedial sealant in Payden Street
The wrong product in the wrong joint fails however neatly it’s applied. Out it comes, and in goes a sealant suited to the job. If you have movement joints that have split or pulled away and sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface, we can help, on leaking tray & enclosure joints, failed movement joints and expansion joints alike.
Somewhere as small as Payden Street, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Payden Street homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Managing a site like The Lenham School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Letting a property close to Lenham station? Then a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.
Payden Street is about 6 miles south of Sittingbourne, in Kent.

Around Payden Street
We work in homes and buildings around The Harrow pub. For rail, the closest station is Lenham station, about 2.3 miles south-west of the centre. Nearby you’ll also find Newnham Castle (3.2 miles north-east).
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Why deal with it now?
Ripping out a bathroom isn’t generally needed. When the fittings are sound, stripping and resealing the joints is often enough. If they’re not, we will tell you. Around Payden Street, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe

Surfaces we seal

- Shrunken worktop sealant
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 with a low-modulus product.
Leaking trays & enclosures
Repeat shower leaks often come from a tray that flexes or an enclosure sealed in the wrong place. Both are checked before any new sealant goes on.
The process
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on. Expect the work to take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Somewhere as small as Payden Street, 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.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- We clean and degrease the joint and look for signs of movement or water.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice
Common questions in Payden Street
Do you cover smaller places like Payden Street?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you do remedial sealant in Payden Street?
Yes, Payden Street is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Can tenants book the work?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. Several properties can go on one quote, and between tenancies is a good time for the work.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Most of the time, yes. We will explain which colours are available and agree one before we start.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
Do you need remedial sealant in Payden Street?
One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. New silicone can’t stick to the old bead, so the new layer peels, and damp and mould settle between them.
Look out for any of the following:
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Torn expansion joints
- Wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Margaret, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
