Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in The Mint
Some sealant jobs aren’t a simple reseal, because someone has already had a go. Silicone laid over silicone, smears across tiles, the wrong product in a moving joint or mould trapped underneath all need stripping out before the joint can be done properly. If you are dealing with a second bead peeling off the first and thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles, we can put it right, on shrunken worktop sealant, mouldy bath & shower sealant and failed movement joints alike.
Being in a small place like The Mint makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

- Old mastic in a building from before 2000 that should be checked for asbestos before it’s disturbed
- Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacing)

The Mint homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around The Mint. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
For an older house near a landmark such as Hope Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. For landlords with property near Liss station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty. Managing a site like Liss Junior School? Then 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.

DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Run the fan after every shower
- Clean sealant with mild products only
- Don’t wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Don’t add new sealant on top of old
If we’ve found a cause, such as a loose tray or a leaking waste, get it fixed, or the new joint may fail again.
Mould trapped under over-sealed joints spreads unseen. When it finally shows, the whole bead needs to come out.
What we do, step by step
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. Somewhere like The Mint needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We protect the surfaces around the joint.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Quotes for remedial sealant in The Mint
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:

- Mould in or behind the old joints
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- If someone has resealed it before
- The address or postcode of the job

What happens if it’s left?
Ripping out a bathroom is not normally needed. When the fittings are sound, stripping and resealing the joints is often enough. Where something else has failed, you will hear it from us. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like The Mint, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

The Mint: your questions answered
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in The Mint?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
Is The Mint within the area you cover?
Yes, The Mint is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you strip sealant from an acrylic tray safely?
Yes. Residue is removed with a product suited to the surface rather than scraped hard, so the new sealant bonds cleanly.
Can you take off two layers of silicone?
Yes. Stripping layered sealant takes longer than a normal reseal, but it’s the only way the new joint will last.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
What if resealing won’t fix my leak?
That’s why we look for the cause first. If we find the leak is elsewhere, we tell you before going further.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
