How we quote for remedial sealant
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The number of rooms or windows
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Whether it has been sealed before
- A few photos by email, if you can
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work and give you a clear quote.
Remedial sealant in West Cross, 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 defeat even a perfect bead. Finding that cause comes before any new sealant. We work on leaking tray & enclosure joints, failed movement joints and expansion joints, and the jobs we see most are a second bead peeling off the first and repeat leaks from the same joint.
Somewhere as small as West Cross, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

DIY versus a professional finish
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 are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
FAQs for West Cross
What guarantee comes with remedial sealant in West Cross?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Will you come out to West Cross?
Yes, West Cross is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
How long does the work take?
A little longer than a standard reseal. For most joints, it’s a few hours, and we confirm the time with your quote.
How long should I leave it?
That depends on the sealant used, so follow the cure time we give you.
Can old silicone be taken off without scratching the tiles?
Yes, with care. The old bead is cut and lifted with tools that suit the surface, then clean off the residue. Any existing damage is pointed out before any work starts.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few photos.
Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- A tray or bath that is cracked
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
- Failed tanking or loose tiles behind the sealant
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.

Remedial sealant around West Cross
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you live in an older home near Parish Church of St Mary, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Schools such as Rolvenden 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.

Leave it or put it right?
Hidden water does the most damage: soaked floorboards, ceiling stains below and blown plaster. Dealing with the joint now is a small job by comparison. Older cottages and farmhouses around West Cross can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Different surfaces, different methods
Mouldy bath & shower sealant
Mould often spreads under the bead as well as through it. We treat the exposed joint once the bead is out so the new sealant starts clean.
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.
