How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Parking around Springhead 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.
- Surrounding tiles, trays and frames are protected first.
- The botched or failed sealant is cut away completely.
- The joint is degreased and checked for movement and leaks.
- Once dry, a suitable sealant is applied and tooled.
- You get the cure time and our view on why the joint failed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Remedial sealant in Springhead, done properly
Removing failed sealant is the hardest part of the job. We cut out every layer, clear the residue and degrease the surfaces, without scratching tiles, trays or frames. New sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. We work on failed movement joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and shrunken worktop sealant, and people most often call us about sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared and mould trapped under a layer of silicone.
In and around Springhead, older properties sit alongside newer ones. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Deal with small splits early
- Find out why the sealant failed first
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
If we have found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, because the new sealant can’t hold back a problem underneath.
If a joint has failed more than once, stop resealing it. Get the cause found first, or the next bead will go the same way.
When something else is needed
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray or bath that is cracked
- Movement from fittings that are not supported
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Springhead homes and their sealant
Springhead is within about 3 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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.
If you let a flat or house near Ebbsfleet International station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. For an older house near a landmark such as Parish Church of St Botolph, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Managing a site like Painters Ash Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Leave it or put it right?
DIY removal often leaves scratches and a film of residue, and any film left behind stops new sealant sticking. Careful removal is most of a remedial job. Around Springhead, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
