All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We reseal baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on basins & vanity units, shower trays & enclosures and baths, and people most often call us about black mould in the sealant and silicone smeared on tiles.

Signs you need bath resealing in Ford
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Each shower leaves moisture and soap behind, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Unsealed corners
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Gaps in the seal
- Old sealant that looks dirty
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How soon you can use it again
- How your room will be protected

What else we do in Ford
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Reseal at the first sign of lifting
- Use the extractor fan
- Dry the seal after bathing
Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, typically around 24 hours.
Do not wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We cut out all of the old sealant.
- We remove the residue and clean the joint.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
- We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

FAQs for Ford
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover Ford?
We do. We send a technician to Ford for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are there extra charges for Ford?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Normally poor ventilation and moisture sitting on the joint. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Resealing in Ford: why it matters
Sealing over old silicone is a false economy. It peels within weeks, and traps mould underneath. We remove the old sealant completely. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What bath resealing costs
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Ford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
