Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in St Margaret's at Cliffe
Not every leak is a sealant leak. Cracked trays, leaking wastes and faulty valves often look like a sealant problem. When the fault is elsewhere, we say so instead of resealing for the sake of it. We work on expansion joints, leaking tray & enclosure joints and shrunken worktop sealant, and people most often call us about dark patches showing through the sealant and movement joints that have split or pulled away.
Around St Margaret's at Cliffe, you will mostly find houses and bungalows, some older and some much newer. Bathrooms and kitchens here get the same daily wear as anywhere, and the sealant and grout show it first.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we have gone.

DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Movement from fittings that are not supported
- Older mastics that may need an asbestos check before removal
- A tray or bath that is cracked
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Failed movement joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Expansion joints
Why deal with it now?
Adding more sealant is the usual quick fix, and it rarely works. It does not grip the old layer, leaving the leak in place and one more layer to cut out later. In an older home around St Margaret's at Cliffe, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
