Remedial sealant in Strood, done properly
A joint that keeps letting you down needs more than another bead. Send photos when you ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email, and say how long ago it was last done. We work on botched or over-sealed joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and failed movement joints, and people most often call us about caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area and worktop sealant that has shrunk and split.
In a town like Strood, older streets sit alongside newer estates, and bathrooms range from decades-old suites to brand-new ones. Whatever their age, sealant and grout tend to go before anything else.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Strood
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. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Strood. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
Managing a site like Elaine Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Homes close to St Francis' Church include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Signs you need remedial sealant in Strood
One of the commonest remedial jobs is sealant on top of sealant. Silicone doesn’t bond to silicone, so the new layer peels, and damp and mould settle between them.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
For landlords with property near Strood station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

How the job changes by surface
Movement & expansion joints
Joints filled with mortar, grout or rigid filler can’t move. We rake that out where it can be removed and seal with a flexible product.
Leaking trays & enclosures
A shower that leaks after resealing often has a tray that moves or an enclosure sealed on the wrong side. Both are checked before we reseal.
When something else is needed
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Where we work in Strood
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Failed movement joints
- Expansion joints
Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Have loose fittings fixed before resealing
- Get the cause of a repeat leak found before resealing
Go easy on the new sealant: no scraping, scouring pads or harsh chemicals.
Mould trapped under over-sealed joints spreads unseen. When it finally shows, the whole bead needs to come out.
