How the visit works
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere as small as Selling, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- The joint is tooled and you are told about anything else we found.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Tell us about any water getting in

Questions from Selling
Will you come out to Selling?
Yes. Selling is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
I let a flat near Selling station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
What does remedial sealant cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You’ll get a clear quote before work begins.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
What if the leak is not the sealant?
We check for that before we reseal. If we find the leak is elsewhere, we tell you before going further.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Do you offer different sealant colours?
Normally, yes. Sealants come in white, clear, grey and other colours for many products, and we’ll agree it with you first.
Surface by surface
Worktops & kitchens
Shrunken worktop sealant leaves a gap that lets water into the back edge. It’s cut out, degreased and resealed colour-matched to the worktop.
Leaking trays & enclosures
Where the joints are the problem, every bead is stripped and resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, including the screen profile and tray edges.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Selling
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.
For landlords with property near Selling station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. Homes close to Church of St Mary include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Why it’s worth doing now in Selling
Hidden water does the most damage: soaked floorboards, ceiling stains below and blown plaster. Dealing with the joint now is a small job by comparison. Around Selling, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Why us?
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- 12-month guarantee on every job
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews
Do you need remedial sealant in Selling?
Some joints fail because water is reaching them from behind. A slow leak behind the tiles soaks the joint from the back, so the silicone goes mouldy or lets go.
People generally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Torn expansion joints
Managing a site like Selling Church of England Primary School? Then washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
