Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in South Ockendon
Not every leak is a sealant leak. A cracked tray, a failed shower valve or a leaking waste can look just the same. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. If you have smears and lumps from a botched reseal and worktop sealant that has shrunk and split, we can put it right.
In a smaller place like South Ockendon, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, some older and some much newer. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

South Ockendon questions
I let a flat near Ockendon station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Is South Ockendon within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
When is the sealant fully cured?
It depends on the product and the conditions. Before we leave, we will tell you the cure time.
My shower still leaks after a reseal. Can you sort it?
Yes. All the sealant comes out, we find out why it failed, and the joint is resealed properly.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. More than one area can go on one quote.
Leave it or put it right?
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. Around South Ockendon, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

When to call us in South Ockendon
Even good sealant ages. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks, faster where ventilation is poor. Then the only fix is removal and a new bead.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Leaks that keep coming back after resealing
- Movement joints that have split or pulled away
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
Rented homes near Ockendon station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

Different surfaces, different methods
Worktops & kitchens
A loose worktop splits its sealant. That needs refixing before resealing, and we will tell you if we find it.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould often spreads under the bead as well as through it. We treat the exposed joint once the bead is out so the new sealant starts clean.
Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Never seal over old silicone
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
- Run the fan after every shower
Clean gently: no scraping, scouring pads or harsh chemicals.
Signs to act on: sealant lifting at the ends, a second bead visible on top of the first, black mould under the silicone, or stains below a bathroom. Each one is worth getting looked at.
The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Parking around South Ockendon is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- The joint is tooled and you are told about anything else we found.
Before we arrive
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
