Bathroom resealing in West Cross

We are ARBOMaster approved and fully insured, and the work comes with a 12-month guarantee. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and sinks & splashbacks, and people most often call us about gaps between the worktop and the wall and black spots spreading through the bead.
Around West Cross, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are covered after we have gone.

Aftercare tips
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Open a window or run the fan so the room dries
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
- Move toiletries away from the joint
- Keep an eye on the corners, where splits start
Good ventilation does more than any cleaner. Use the fan, or open a window, while you bathe and for a while afterwards, so the bead dries out between uses.
A split bead lets water through every time the bath or shower is used. Left alone, it soaks into the floor, the wall behind the tiles or the ceiling below. Resealing early stops it.
West Cross homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale 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.
West Cross is about 12 miles south-west of Ashford, in Kent. West Cross gets the same service as everywhere we cover: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee. We cover 922 towns and villages across Kent, large and small. Our Crawley page covers work nearby.

Why act early in West Cross
A failed joint gets more costly to put right the longer it’s left. Once water is behind the bath, it can reach floorboards, panels and the ceiling underneath, turning a small job into a building repair. Older cottages and farmhouses around West Cross can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

When to call us in West Cross
A bath shifts a little every time it’s filled and emptied. Acrylic in particular gives slightly under the weight of water and a person, while a poorly supported tray can shift underfoot. That movement works at the bead until it splits or peels away.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- Black spots spreading through the bead
Managing a site like Rolvenden Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. Somewhere like West Cross needs a little journey planning: 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.
- First the area is protected and every bit of old sealant removed.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- We let it dry fully and fill the bath with water before sealing.
- We apply anti-fungal sanitary silicone in one even bead and tool it neatly.
- We tidy up and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

When it isn’t the sealant
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- A cracked shower tray or bath (that needs repair or replacement)
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How the job changes by surface
Sinks & splashbacks
Around the sink, we use a product suited to kitchens, and a food-safe product where it’s needed. The bead is finished smooth so it wipes clean.
Basins & vanity units
The back of a basin gets wet every time someone washes. Old sealant there often goes black at the corners, so it’s cut out and renewed just like a bath joint.
