Remedial sealant in Primrose Hill, done properly
Decorators’ caulk in a shower, bathroom silicone on a window, a rigid filler in a movement joint fails however neatly it’s applied. We take it out and use a sealant made for that joint. We work on expansion joints, failed movement joints and botched or over-sealed joints, and common reasons people get in touch are caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area and a second bead peeling off the first.
London’s water is hard, so limescale builds up along sealant lines, in grout and on fittings. For a bathroom or kitchen in Primrose Hill, getting the joints right keeps water where it belongs and the room looking clean.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

How the job changes by surface
Movement & expansion joints
Some movement joints have been filled with mortar or grout. Where it can be raked out, we replace it with flexible sealant.
Windows & doors
Some leaks around windows come from the wall or the window itself. We check the joint and tell you if it looks to be something else.
DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied, depending on the size of the job. In Primrose Hill, flats, stairs and shared entrances are part of the routine. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- The joint is cleaned, treated for mould and left to dry.
- We use the right backing and sealant for any joint that moves.
- Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
How to get a quote
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that’s easy.

When to call us in Primrose Hill
All sealant wears out eventually. Over the years it shrinks, hardens and gets colonised by mould. At that point it has to come out.
People usually contact us when they notice one of these:
- A second bead peeling off the first
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
- Gaps opening along the back of the worktop
- Caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area
For landlords with property near Kentish Town West station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.
What your quote should include
- How the colour is chosen
- Who turns up on the day
- How long to leave it before use
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
Primrose Hill homes and their sealant
Primrose Hill has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. In a London flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal can reach the neighbours below, which is why it’s worth fixing early.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary the Virgin, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Primrose Hill is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

Primrose Hill questions
I live in a flat in Primrose Hill. Can a failed seal leak into the flat below?
Yes, and the first sign is often a stain on the ceiling below. A proper reseal before the leak starts is the easy fix.
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Primrose Hill?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
How do I get a quote for remedial sealant in Primrose Hill?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Can you fix a reseal that hasn’t worked?
Yes. Repeat leaks normally come from over-sealing, movement or water getting in elsewhere, so we find that first.
Can failed expansion joints be resealed?
Yes. Backing sets the depth and stops the sealant sticking to the back, which lets it stretch.
