FAQs for Standen
Do you cover smaller places like Standen?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Headcorn station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Someone resealed my shower and it’s leaking again. Can you help?
Yes. Repeat leaks normally come from over-sealing, movement or water getting in elsewhere, and we deal with the cause first.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes. Careful removal is most of a remedial job, especially on acrylic, enamel and uPVC.
Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?
Yes. Both layers come out; over-sealing fails because silicone will not bond to silicone.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Tell us what needs doing and where, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we are fully insured.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.
Remedial sealant in Standen, done properly
Two decades of sealant work means we recognise most failures quickly. We’re ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and every remedial job comes with a 12-month guarantee. Common call-outs are for wide, uneven beads that look worse than the old ones and dark patches showing through the sealant, on expansion joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and failed movement joints.
Somewhere as small as Standen, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How the job changes by surface
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Repeat mould usually points to a damp, poorly aired room. We will reseal and tell you if extraction looks to be the issue.
Leaking trays & enclosures
Where the joints are the problem, every bead is stripped and resealed with anti-fungal sanitary silicone, including the screen profile and tray edges.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A leaking trap, valve or supply pipe
- A tray or bath that is cracked
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
How the visit works
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere as small as Standen, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- New sealant goes in once the joint is dry, and is tooled smooth.
- We give you the cure time and explain what caused the failure.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Related advice
Why deal with it now?
DIY removal often leaves scratches and a film of residue, and the residue left behind stops the next bead bonding. Careful removal is most of a remedial job. Around Standen, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

How we quote for remedial sealant
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Access and height
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
What we need to know
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- The address or postcode of the job
- How we’d reach the joints
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The type of property
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details and send pictures if you have them.
For landlords and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can go on one quote.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Standen
