Remedial sealant in Tulse Hill
Getting old sealant out properly is slow, careful work. We cut out every layer, clear the residue and degrease the surfaces, taking care not to scratch the surfaces around it. New sealant only bonds to a clean, dry joint. We work on expansion joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and shrunken worktop sealant, and people most often call us about kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop and caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area.
Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. For a bathroom or kitchen in Tulse Hill, getting the joints right keeps water where it belongs and the room looking clean.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.

Tulse Hill questions
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Tulse Hill?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
I live in a flat in Tulse Hill. 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.
Someone sealed over the old bead. Can you fix it?
Yes. We remove every layer; new silicone doesn’t bond to old silicone, which is why over-sealing fails.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes. We avoid heavy scraping and use the right cleaner for each surface.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
What if resealing won’t fix my leak?
You’ll hear it from us. A cracked tray, faulty valve or leaking waste needs a different trade, 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. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Where do you work from?
We are a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Remedial sealant in Tulse Hill: local notes
In a London flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal can reach the neighbours below, which is why it’s worth fixing early. London has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Martin-In-The-Fields High School for Girls, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. If you let a flat or house near Tulse Hill station, a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Surface by surface
Movement & expansion joints
Some movement joints have been filled with mortar or grout. Where it can be raked out, we replace it with flexible sealant.
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Black mould inside the bead will not scrub out. The sealant is cut out completely, the joint treated with a mould remover and dried before anti-fungal sanitary silicone goes in.
Why act early in Tulse Hill
Spraying mould remover on a sealed-over joint does not reach what’s underneath. Removal is the only way to get at it, so the joint can be treated and resealed. In a flat in Tulse Hill, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.
Why us?

Signs you need remedial sealant in Tulse Hill
All sealant wears out eventually. Over the years it shrinks, hardens and gets colonised by mould. At that point it has to come out.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
- Beads that never stuck properly
- A shower that leaks however often it’s resealed
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
