Silver Street Remedial Sealant

- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles

- Black mould underneath the bead
Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Silver Street
Decorators’ caulk in a shower, bathroom silicone on a window, a rigid filler in a movement joint won’t last, however tidy it looks. We take it out and use a sealant made for that joint. Typical jobs include smears and lumps from a botched reseal and decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower, on mouldy bath & shower sealant, expansion joints and leaking tray & enclosure joints.
In a village or hamlet like Silver Street, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
What sealant work can’t fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Movement from fittings that aren’t supported
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
- A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

The process
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Somewhere like Silver Street needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- Every layer of failed sealant is stripped out.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Advice
Remedial sealant around Silver Street
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Managing a site like Bredgar 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. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St John the Baptist, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Rented homes near Sittingbourne station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

Why it’s worth doing now in Silver Street
A joint that has failed twice will fail again unless the cause is dealt with. Taking time to find the cause, whether it’s movement, a leak or the wrong product, is what stops it happening again. In a small place like Silver Street, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
