How the job changes by surface
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould can sit behind the silicone, not just in it. Once it’s all removed, the joint is treated.
Leaking trays & enclosures
If the tray is cracked, or the leak is from the valve or waste, sealant won’t fix it. We say so rather than reseal.
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Run the fan after every shower
- Keep bleach and abrasives off the bead
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
Do not let anyone seal over it later. Over-sealing is how many remedial jobs start, so the old bead should always come out first.
Leaks through failed sealant grow over time. Every shower or downpour sends more water through, into floors, walls or ceilings. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.
Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Bathrooms and kitchens in St Leonards
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Homes close to Church of St Leonard include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For landlords with property near Wendover station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

The process
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. In a small place like St Leonards, access is normally the main thing to plan. 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.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

What happens if it’s left?
Leaks that are left keep doing damage out of sight: soaked floorboards, ceiling stains below and blown plaster. By comparison, sorting the joint is quick. Older cottages and farmhouses around St Leonards can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
