Advice
About our bath resealing in Ford
All of the old sealant is cut out, treat any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. Common call-outs are for mould you can’t clean out and unsealed corners, in wet rooms, shower trays & enclosures and baths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

How we price bath resealing
You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ford use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Is resealing worth it?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Leaving split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and that damage costs much more to fix. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

When to call us in Ford
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- An untidy old seal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Discoloured, yellow sealant
- Unsealed corners

Ford: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Wiltshire.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How long before I can shower?
We will give you the curing time, normally around a day.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you seal over the old sealant?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Open a window after bathing
- Wipe the joints dry after use
- Do not stand toiletries on the seal
- Replace the seal when mould sets in
Use the extractor fan, dry the joints after bathing, and give them a regular clean with a mild cleaner to slow mould growth.
Don’t wait until water gets behind the bath. Gaps or lifting edges mean it needs doing.
