How we handle remedial sealant in Ridgeway

Two decades of sealant work means we recognise most failures quickly. We’re ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and remedial work carries our 12-month guarantee. We work on mouldy bath & shower sealant, botched or over-sealed joints and leaking tray & enclosure joints, and common reasons people get in touch are wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones and mould trapped under a layer of silicone.

Being in a small place like Ridgeway makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ridgeway as everywhere else we work.

Your questions about remedial sealant in Ridgeway

Do you cover smaller places like Ridgeway?

Yes, Ridgeway is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Do you work for landlords with property near Westenhanger station?

Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.

How long does remedial resealing take?

That depends on how many layers there are and how many joints. We’ll tell you before work begins.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.

Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?

Yes. We avoid heavy scraping and use the right cleaner for each surface.

How long should I leave it?

Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you.

Is it worth trying it myself?

Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.

Remedial sealant around Ridgeway

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

For landlords with property near Westenhanger station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. In the older streets around Church of St Mary, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Ridgeway is about 4 miles east of Ashford, in Kent. Ridgeway gets the same service as everywhere we cover: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee. We cover 922 towns and villages across Kent, large and small. We also work in Chelmsford, around 47 miles away.

Every address in TN25 is covered for remedial sealant, from the main roads to the quietest streets. We also cover Smeeth (1 mile east), Brabourne Lees (1 mile east), Lilyvale (1 mile east), Bircholt Forstal (1 mile north-east) and Mersham (1 mile west). We also work in nearby towns such as Ashford (4 miles west), Canterbury (12 miles north-east), Dover (15 miles east), Folkestone (9 miles east), Faversham (14 miles north) and Hythe (6 miles south-east).

When something else is needed

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we seal

  • Shrunken worktop sealant
  • Failed movement joints
  • Botched or over-sealed joints
  • Expansion joints
  • Mouldy bath & shower sealant
  • Leaking tray & enclosure joints

Why deal with it now?

Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint does not reach what’s underneath. The layers have to come out. Older cottages and farmhouses around Ridgeway can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

  • 180+ five-star Google reviews
  • White, clear, grey or another colour, product permitting
  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

How the job changes by surface

Movement & expansion joints

Some movement joints have been filled with mortar or grout. We rake that out where it can be removed and seal with a flexible product.

Over-sealed & botched joints

Botched joints sometimes have damaged edges from earlier scraping. We work carefully to avoid adding to it, and point out any existing damage.

How the visit works

You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out in most cases. Somewhere like Ridgeway needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
  2. Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
  3. Mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
  5. We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

How we quote for remedial sealant

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:

  • How much there is to do
  • How many areas need sealing
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What to tell us for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • The type of property
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Roughly how big the job is

We quote each job on its own. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details and send pictures if you have them.

Landlord and commercial work in Ridgeway

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. We can quote for more than one property at once.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.

What we’re called out for in Ridgeway

Movement tears sealant that is not designed for it. A bath that flexes, a tray that rocks or a building joint that opens and closes will split a rigid or thin bead.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
  • Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
  • Sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface
  • Products that weren’t meant for the joint

Schools such as Smeeth Community Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What your quote should include

  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • Is VAT in the price?
  • Are they insured?
  • How long to leave it before use
