Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Selham
Remedial jobs in Selham generally fall into a few patterns: sealant over sealant, mould under the bead, leaks that come back and movement joints that have split. We strip each one back and start from scratch. We work on leaking tray & enclosure joints, shrunken worktop sealant and mouldy bath & shower sealant, and the jobs we see most are kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop and movement joints that have split or pulled away.
In a village or hamlet like Selham, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Remedial sealant around Selham
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
In and around Selham, as anywhere, good remedial sealant starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. If you live in an older home near Church of St James, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

What happens on the day
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out from start to finish. In a small place like Selham, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Advice
Surface by surface
Worktops & kitchens
If a worktop moves when you lean on it, the sealant will keep splitting. It needs fixing down first, and we will tell you if we find it.
Over-sealed & botched joints
Previous removal attempts can leave scratches or gouges. We take care not to make it worse, and point out any existing damage.
Why it’s worth doing now in Selham
Adding more sealant is the usual quick fix, and it rarely works. It cannot bond to what’s underneath, so the leak carries on and there’s now more to remove. Older cottages and farmhouses around Selham can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
- A tray or bath that’s cracked
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Where we work in Selham
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Failed movement joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Expansion joints
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Check trays and worktops don’t move
- Find out why the sealant failed first
- Use a soft cloth, not a scourer, on silicone
Keep an eye on the joint at first, particularly where the original failure was caused by movement. If anything changes, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and the longer it’s left, the more the joint edges break down. Resealing while the edges are sound is simpler.

DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Questions from Selham
Is Selham in your area for remedial sealant?
Yes, Selham is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Is Selham within the area you cover?
Yes, Selham is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes, with care. We cut and lift the old sealant with tools suited to the surface, and the residue is cleaned away. Any existing damage is pointed out before any work starts.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Can you reseal a split movement joint?
Yes. The depth is set with backing so the sealant only bonds to the two sides, which lets it stretch.
Can you take off two layers of silicone?
Yes. Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off, then the joint is resealed once.
How long does remedial resealing take?
It takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. We’ll give you a timescale when we quote.
