Vigo Village Remedial Sealant
Our applicators work in Vigo Village on removing failed, mouldy or leaking sealant and putting it right. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and a 12-month guarantee.

How the job changes by surface
Over-sealed & botched joints
Thick, smeared sealant looks messy and hides problems. We strip it back so we can see the joint.
Movement & expansion joints
Joints filled with mortar, grout or rigid filler cannot move. Where it can be raked out, we replace it with flexible sealant.
About our remedial sealant in Vigo Village
Decorators’ caulk in a shower, bathroom silicone on a window, a rigid filler in a movement joint fails however neatly it’s applied. We take it out and use a sealant made for that joint. If you have products that weren’t meant for the joint and sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted, we can help.
Around Vigo Village, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Vigo Village as everywhere else we work.

What happens on the day
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for a typical bath or shower, longer where several layers have been applied.

Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- 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.
- We treat any mould and dry the joint thoroughly.

- The joint is tooled and you are told about anything else we found.

Advice
What remedial sealant looks like in Vigo Village
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Borough Green & Wrotham station, failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak. If you live in an older home near Church of St Peter and St Paul, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Vigo Village questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Borough Green & Wrotham station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Vigo Village within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you fix expansion and movement joints?
Yes. The depth is set with backing so the sealant only bonds to the two sides.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
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.
Signs you need remedial sealant in Vigo Village
Silicone only bonds to surfaces that are clean and dry. Soap film, dust, damp or old residue stop it gripping, and the joint starts to come away early.
People usually contact us when they notice one of these:
- Smears and lumps from a botched reseal
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Dark patches showing through the sealant
If you look after a building such as Vigo Village School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What product goes in the joint
- How much experience the applicator has
What affects the cost of remedial sealant
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The product the joint needs
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Access and height
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before work begins.
