Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in High Cross
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. Each gets a bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone, tooled smooth so water runs off instead of sitting in a ridge. We are often asked to deal with water getting behind the bath panel and mouldy sealant that has gone black, on sinks & splashbacks, kitchen worktops & upstands and basins & vanity units.
For a small place like High Cross, bathroom resealing is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in High Cross and across West Sussex.

How the visit works
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers, and the area is left clean. For a village or hamlet like High Cross, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Move anything stored near the joints

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Basins & vanity units
Basin joints are short and close to eye level: the bead is right in front of you, so it’s tooled cleanly and evenly, finished in a colour that suits the basin.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Laminate worktops swell if water gets into the core. A sound joint along the back edge stops that, as long as the worktop itself is firmly fixed.
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Move toiletries away from the joint
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Run the extractor fan during and after a shower, so the silicone gets a chance to dry.
Small signs come before a leak: lifting ends, gaps, dark shadows under the bead or a stain downstairs. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.
When it isn’t the sealant
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- A tray or bath that’s cracked through
- Water coming from the plumbing rather than the joint
- A bath or tray that moves because it is not properly supported

Landlords, agents and businesses in High Cross
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Common problems we fix in High Cross
Sealant laid on a damp, dusty or greasy joint never bonds properly. Traces of soap, bath oil and old sealant stop it gripping, so a rushed job can start to lift early.
People normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
If you look after a building such as Albourne CofE Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
What your quote should include
- How hidden problems are handled
- Who turns up on the day
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- How long to leave it before use
Leave it or put it right?
Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. Cutting it out and resealing with anti-fungal silicone is the fix that lasts. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like High Cross, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before work begins.
Why choose Mr Mastic in High Cross

Bathrooms and kitchens in High Cross
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Rented homes near Hassocks station change hands often, and mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. For an older house near a landmark such as The Parish Church of St Bartholomew, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
