Remedial sealant in Sturry, done properly
A joint that keeps failing normally has a reason. A tray that moves, a worktop that isn’t fixed, the wrong sealant or water getting in elsewhere will beat any new bead. Finding that cause comes before any new sealant. If you’re dealing with sealant peeling off a dusty or damp surface and gaps opening along the back of the worktop, we can put it right, on leaking tray & enclosure joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and botched or over-sealed joints alike.
Smaller places like Sturry still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Sturry and across Kent.

What we are called out for in Sturry
Sealant needs a clean, dry surface with no grease on it. Residue, moisture or dust left in the joint weaken the bond, and the joint starts to come away early.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Beads that never stuck properly
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
- Repeat leaks from the same joint
- Over-sealed joints coming away
If you live in an older home near St Nicholas' Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Sturry questions
Is Sturry within the area you cover?
Yes, Sturry is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Sturry station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
Does remedial work come with a guarantee?
Yes. Every job comes with our one-year guarantee.
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, so we find that first.
When is the sealant fully cured?
That depends on the sealant used, so please follow the time we give you when we finish.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Parking around Sturry is usually easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Each layer is cut out and the residue cleaned off.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- The joint is tooled and you’re told about anything else we found.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What affects the cost of remedial sealant
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- How much there is to do
- How many areas need sealing
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The rough size of the job
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Other services in Sturry
Landlords, agents and businesses in Sturry
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep the room well ventilated
- Never fill a movement joint with mortar or grout
- Don’t add new sealant on top of old
- Act on a lifting corner straight away
Clean gently: 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.
Remedial sealant around Sturry
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Schools such as Sturry Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

Why it’s worth doing now in Sturry
A failed seal rarely means a new bathroom. If the bath, tray and tiles are sound, remedial resealing usually puts it right. Where something else has failed, you’ll hear it from us. In a smaller place like Sturry, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
