FAQs for Plaitford Green
I let a flat near Mottisfont & Dunbridge station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is Plaitford Green within the area you cover?
Yes. Plaitford Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you quote for more than one area?

How long does remedial resealing take?
Allow a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. You will know the timing when we quote.
Can you reseal a split movement joint?
Yes. Backing sets the depth and stops the sealant sticking to the back.

Yes. We will take all the sealant out, look for why it failed and reseal it properly.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes. We take our time over removal, especially on acrylic, enamel and uPVC.

The process
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied in most cases. Somewhere as small as Plaitford 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.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
How to get a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.
Related advice
Can I do it myself?
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.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

Do you need remedial sealant in Plaitford Green?
Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, and the joint starts to come away early.
People normally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted

Remedial sealant around Plaitford Green
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, 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 Leonard, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Leave it or put it right?
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but rarely a lot: the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent. Around Plaitford Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear price for the lot.
