I let a flat near Borough Green & Wrotham station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Where are you based?
We are based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
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, and the residue is cleaned away. We point out any damage that’s already there.
What happens if the problem is the tray or the plumbing?
That is why we look for the cause first. If we find the leak is elsewhere, we tell you before going further.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Can I do it myself?
That depends on the joint. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
How we handle remedial sealant in Yopps Green
Some sealant jobs aren’t a simple reseal, because someone has already had a go. Silicone laid over silicone, smears across tiles, the wrong product in a moving joint or mould trapped underneath all need stripping out before the joint can be done properly. If you’re dealing with thick, messy sealant smeared over tiles and caulk or the wrong sealant used in a wet area, we can help, on leaking tray & enclosure joints, failed movement joints and botched or over-sealed joints alike.
In a village or hamlet like Yopps Green, 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.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What we do, step by step
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. 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 Yopps Green, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- The failure is looked at first, so we know whether it’s sealant, movement or water from elsewhere.
- Old beads and residue are removed down to clean surfaces.
- Mould is treated and the joint dried.
- We reseal with a product suited to the joint, backed where needed.
- We finish neatly and point out anything that needs another trade.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Quotes for remedial sealant in Yopps Green
We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Working hours on commercial sites
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- The address or postcode of the job
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.
Common problems we fix in Yopps Green
Even good sealant ages. Mould grows into the silicone, the surface hardens and the bead shrinks, faster where ventilation is poor. At that point it has to come out.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Black mould underneath the bead
- Over-sealed joints coming away
- Floor or wall movement joints that have failed
- Kitchen joints letting water behind the worktop
Letting a property close to Borough Green & Wrotham station? Then a joint that keeps failing is best fixed properly while the property is empty.

Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Ask why a joint failed before redoing it
- Keep movement joints clear of mortar and paint
- Don’t wait for a small gap to become a leak
- Check trays and worktops don’t move
Watch the joint over the first few weeks, especially if movement was the problem. Should anything change, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
A split movement joint lets rain into walls and floors, and left long enough, the edges of the joint can crumble. A joint with sound edges is far easier to reseal.
Different surfaces, different methods
Worktops & kitchens
Old kitchen sealant pulls back from the wall over time. It’s cut out, degreased and resealed in a colour to suit.
Leaking trays & enclosures
A cracked tray, failed valve or leaking waste needs a different fix. We say so rather than reseal.
What happens if it’s left?
Stripping out botched sealant adds time to a reseal, but rarely a lot: the work takes a few hours for most joints, depending on how much old sealant has to come out. It’s far less disruption than resealing the same joint again and again. In a small place like Yopps Green, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Why us?
- You choose the colour before work begins
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- Fully insured
Yopps Green homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around Plaxtol Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Managing a site like Plaxtol Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
