What bathroom resealing looks like in Ford
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you let a flat or house near Haddenham & Thame Parkway station, mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. Around Ford, as everywhere, bathroom resealing is only as good as the preparation behind it.

How we handle bathroom resealing in Ford
Mr Mastic has more than 20 years’ experience of sealant work, and our applicators reseal bathrooms and kitchens across Ford. We’re fully insured ARBOMaster approved applicators, and every job carries our one-year guarantee. We work on kitchen worktops & upstands, sinks & splashbacks and baths, and the jobs we see most are splits where the tray meets the wall and damp behind the bath or under the tray.
In a village or hamlet like Ford, 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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep scourers and sharp tools away from the bead
- Do not leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
Check the sealant now and then. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, and if anything looks wrong, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Resealing early stops it.
For landlords and businesses
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Ford and across Buckinghamshire. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.
For anyone letting property in or around Ford, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each.
When it is not the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Movement from a bath with loose feet or no proper support
- Cracked or missing grout between tiles (that is regrouting)
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before you book.

What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
There’s no set price list. The quote depends on:
- The size of the job
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The product the joint needs
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Where the property is
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If someone has resealed it before
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and describe the job, and photos are welcome.
How the visit works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. For a village or hamlet like Ford, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We cover the area around the joints we’re working on.
- We cut away the old sealant and clean off what’s left.
- We treat any mould and let the joint dry properly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Before we arrive
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Ford: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Ford?
Yes. Ford is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Haddenham & Thame Parkway station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No. Fresh silicone can’t stick to the old bead, so it peels away and hides mould and water. We always take the old sealant out completely.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Can you reseal around my kitchen sink and worktop?
Yes. Worktops, sinks and splashbacks are all part of the job, in a kitchen-suitable sealant, matched to the worktop where it’s on show.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.
Does the resealing come with a guarantee?
Yes. We give a 12-month guarantee on every job, and we’re ARBOMaster approved applicators.
Why deal with it now?
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, and that’s a far bigger job than a reseal. Around Ford, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

How the job changes by surface
Basins & vanity units
The back of a basin gets wet every time someone washes. Corners behind basins are where mould tends to start, so it’s cut out and renewed just like a bath joint.
Baths
Acrylic baths flex the most, and even steel and cast iron baths settle slightly when full. Loading the bath with water before sealing allows for it.
