Remedial sealant in Three Mills, done properly
A movement joint stops working when its sealant splits or sets hard. We cut out the failed sealant and set the depth with backing, before resealing with a flexible product suited to the movement. Common call-outs are for gaps opening along the back of the worktop and sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared, across botched or over-sealed joints, shrunken worktop sealant and expansion joints.
In much of London, period terraces have been converted into flats over the years, with bathrooms fitted into whatever space was available. A compact bathroom that steams up every day is hard on silicone and grout.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It generally takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied. In Three Mills, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.
- First we find out how and where the joint has failed.
- All the old sealant comes out, including any layers underneath.
- Next, any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- Moving joints get backing and a flexible sealant to suit.
- Finally we finish the joint and talk you through what we found.
Before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Common problems we fix in Three Mills
Joints that move need sealant that can stretch. A bath that flexes, a tray that rocks or a building joint that opens and closes will split a rigid or thin bead.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Torn expansion joints
- A second bead peeling off the first
As a London address, Three Mills can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Three Mills: your questions answered
I live in a flat in Three Mills. Can a failed seal leak into the flat below?
Yes, and the first sign is often a stain on the ceiling below. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a new bead early stops it getting that far.
Is parking a problem for a job in Three Mills?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. We work for householders, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels across Greater London.
What if resealing won’t fix my leak?
We will tell you. If it’s a cracked tray, a failed valve or a leaking waste, resealing won’t fix it, and we won’t reseal for the sake of it.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Report a tray that rocks or a worktop that lifts
- Look for stains below bathrooms now and then
- Always have old sealant cut out, not covered
- Air the bathroom so the sealant can dry
Watch the joint over the first few weeks, especially if movement was the problem. Should anything change, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
A failing joint rarely gets better on its own. Each use pushes more water behind the bead, into whatever is behind or below. Early action keeps it to a sealant job.
What sealant work can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
- A bath, tray or worktop that moves until it’s properly fixed
- Plumbing leaks behind walls or under trays
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Botched or over-sealed joints
- Shrunken worktop sealant
- Mouldy bath & shower sealant
- Failed movement joints
- Leaking tray & enclosure joints
- Expansion joints
Leave it or put it right?
Repeat failures have a cause. Finding it, whether movement, water from elsewhere or an unsuitable product, ends the cycle. Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Dealing with it early is far simpler for homes in Three Mills.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

How the job changes by surface
Over-sealed & botched joints
A thick bead smeared across tiles often hides mould or gaps. We strip it back so we can see the joint, then reseal neatly.
Worktops & kitchens
Kitchen joints often have grease and cleaning residue deep in them, so we spend extra time cleaning before resealing.
Remedial sealant in Three Mills: local notes
Three Mills has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. London’s water is hard, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Managing a site like East London Science 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. If you live in an older home near St Mary's Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
