Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in St Clement's
A joint that keeps failing generally has a reason. Movement, the wrong product or a leak from somewhere else will defeat even a perfect bead. Finding that cause comes before any new sealant. We work on botched or over-sealed joints, shrunken worktop sealant and mouldy bath & shower sealant, and people most often call us about sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared and thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles.
Homes around St Clement's range from older cottages to more recent houses. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. St Clement's has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
For landlords with property near Oxford station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. Managing a site like East Oxford 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. If you live in an older home near St Clement's Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Act on a lifting corner straight away
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
- Don’t add new sealant on top of old
- Don’t point over movement joints
Watch the joint over the first few weeks, especially if movement was the problem. Should anything change, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
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.
Landlord and commercial work in St Clement's
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.
Letting agents and landlords in St Clement's can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Why deal with it now?
A failed seal rarely means a new bathroom. When the fittings are sound, stripping and resealing the joints is often enough. If they’re not, we will tell you. Homes in smaller places like St Clement's can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.
Why St Clement's clients choose us
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- We agree the colour with you first
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- We never seal over old sealant
What affects the cost of remedial sealant
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Whether the work is at height
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The number and length of the joints
- Any mould that needs treating
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
What we need to know
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
What we can’t put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
- Movement from fittings that are not supported
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Failed movement joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Expansion joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
How it works
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out from start to finish. For a job in St Clement's, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
Getting a quote
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Advice
St Clement's: your questions answered
Do you work in hotels near St Clement's?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Do you cover smaller places like St Clement's?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. Residue is removed with a product suited to the surface rather than scraped hard.
Does remedial work come with a guarantee?
Yes, for 12 months. If we have pointed out another problem, getting it fixed helps the new joint last.
Can you match the sealant colour?
Yes. White, clear and grey are common, and other colours are available, and we agree the colour with you before work begins.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Can you reseal a split movement joint?
Yes. Failed movement joints are cut out and resealed with backing and a flexible sealant suited to the movement.
