Remedial sealant in Woolpack Corner
If a joint fails again and again, something is causing it. Movement, the wrong product or a leak from somewhere else will beat any new bead. We look for the cause before we reseal. We’re often asked to deal with mould trapped under a layer of silicone and over-sealed joints coming away, across expansion joints, mouldy bath & shower sealant and botched or over-sealed joints.
For a small place like Woolpack Corner, remedial sealant is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Should I try it myself first?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
When something else is needed
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A tray or worktop that needs refixing first
- Cracks in the fitting rather than the joint
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.

Woolpack Corner homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For an older house near a landmark such as Parish Church of All Saints, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Rented homes near Headcorn station change hands often, and failed or mouldy sealant is worth putting right between tenancies, before it turns into a leak.

What happens on the day
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. In a small place like Woolpack Corner, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The right product goes in, with backing where the joint moves.
- The joint is tooled and you are told about anything else we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

FAQs for Woolpack Corner
Do you work for landlords with property near Headcorn station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you cover Woolpack Corner for remedial sealant?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Woolpack Corner is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
How long before the joint can be used?
Different products cure at different speeds, so please follow the time we give you.
Do you fix expansion and movement joints?
Yes. The depth is set with backing so the sealant only bonds to the two sides, which lets it stretch.
Do you guarantee remedial jobs?
Yes, with our one-year guarantee. Where we’ve flagged another fault, it needs fixing for the joint to last.
How long will it take to strip and reseal the joint?
That depends on how many layers there are and how many joints. You will have a timescale before any work begins.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
Can you remove old sealant without damaging the bath?
Yes, with care. We cut and lift the old sealant with tools suited to the surface, then clean off the residue. Any existing damage is pointed out before work begins.
Why act early in Woolpack Corner
Leaks that are left keep doing damage out of sight: soaked floorboards, ceiling stains below and blown plaster. Dealing with the joint now is a small job by comparison. Older cottages and farmhouses around Woolpack Corner can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first.

Surface by surface
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.
Leaking trays & enclosures
When failed joints are the cause, they’re all cut out and renewed, including the screen profile and tray edges.
When to call us in Woolpack Corner
Some joints fail because water is reaching them from behind. A slow leak behind the tiles soaks the joint from the back, so the silicone goes mouldy or lets go.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Products that weren’t meant for the joint
- Sealant that came away because the surface wasn’t prepared
- Sealant applied over old sealant that has lifted
- Mould trapped under a layer of silicone
Schools such as John Mayne Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
