How we handle remedial sealant in Stubb's Cross

With more than 20 years’ experience, our applicators have seen most of the ways sealant can fail. We are fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and remedial work carries our one-year guarantee. Common call-outs are for repeat leaks from the same joint and beads that never stuck properly, on leaking tray & enclosure joints, expansion joints and mouldy bath & shower sealant.

Homes around Stubb's Cross are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Why it’s worth doing now in Stubb's Cross

Mould under a bead can’t be reached by cleaning. Removal is the only way to get at it, so the joint can be treated and resealed. Older cottages and farmhouses around Stubb's Cross can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Take a look at what affects the cost and our reviews.

Landlord and commercial work in Stubb's Cross

Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Letting agents and landlords in Stubb's Cross can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:

  • A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
  • Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
  • A tray or bath that’s cracked

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Shrunken worktop sealant
  • Mouldy bath & shower sealant
  • Expansion joints
  • Botched or over-sealed joints
  • Failed movement joints
  • Leaking tray & enclosure joints

Surface by surface

Over-sealed & botched joints

Thick, smeared sealant looks messy and hides problems. We strip it back so we can see the joint.

Leaking trays & enclosures

A cracked tray, failed valve or leaking waste needs a different fix. We say so rather than reseal.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

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 fails, we can still redo it.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Stubb's Cross

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

Letting a property close to Ashford International station? Then failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. Managing a site like Kingsnorth Church of England Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. If you live in an older home near St Francis, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

What we do, step by step

A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. Somewhere like Stubb's Cross needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
  2. Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
  3. Mould is treated and the joint dried.
  4. The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
  5. The joint is tooled and you are told about anything else we found.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Move anything stored near the joints

What affects the cost of remedial sealant

You will get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:

  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The type of sealant required
  • The amount of work
  • Mould in or behind the old joints

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before work begins.

Helping us quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:

  • How we’d reach the joints
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Where the property is
  • What’s wrong with the joints now

There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
