What remedial sealant looks like in Westwell Leacon
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around Charing Methodist Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Managing a site like The Hayesbrook School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Remedial sealant for homes and businesses in Westwell Leacon
In Westwell Leacon, as anywhere, remedial jobs tend to look alike: over-sealed joints, hidden mould, repeat leaks and split movement joints. Each is stripped back and done again properly. Typical jobs include mould trapped under a layer of silicone and thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles, across mouldy bath & shower sealant, expansion joints and shrunken worktop sealant.
In a village or hamlet like Westwell Leacon, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

What happens if it’s left?
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but not by much: the work takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out. Compared with chasing the same leak every few months, it’s time well spent. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Westwell Leacon, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Surface by surface
Worktops & kitchens
A loose worktop splits its sealant. It needs fixing down first, and we will tell you if we find it.
Movement & expansion joints
A movement joint must be able to stretch. Failed sealant is cut out, backing rod or tape is fitted and the joint resealed.
Can I do it myself?
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.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Questions from Westwell Leacon
Do you work for landlords with property near Charing station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Do you cover Westwell Leacon for remedial sealant?

Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Can I choose the sealant colour?
We’ll suggest a colour to suit the surroundings, from white and clear to greys and other shades. The choice depends on the product the joint needs.

The job generally takes a few hours, depending on how many layers have to come out, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go.

- We protect the surfaces around the joint.

Advice
Common problems we fix in Westwell Leacon
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.
The problems people normally mention when they call include:
- Decorators’ caulk around a bath or shower
- Black mould underneath the bead
- Worktop sealant that has shrunk and split
- Thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles
Rented homes near Charing station change hands often, and a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.
