Bath resealing in Fir Toll without replacing anything
Preparation is everything in a reseal: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, in a neat, continuous bead. Whether it’s missing sealant behind the taps and water getting behind the bath or tray, we can help, on baths, basins & vanity units and shower trays & enclosures alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a couple of hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we strip out every bit of the old mastic.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- We make sure the joint is completely dry.
- We fill a bath with water before sealing so the gap is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What else we do in Fir Toll
Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Fir Toll. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
- Where you are, by postcode
If you’re in Fir Toll and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Fir Toll
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Hidden water damage
- Hollow or loose tiles
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Fir Toll

Your questions about bath resealing in Fir Toll
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you reseal over the old silicone?
We always remove the old sealant completely. Fresh silicone doesn’t stick to old.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Fir Toll included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What your bath or shower is made of matters
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
We reseal basins, vanity tops and kitchen worktops, with the joint fully dried first.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Keep the joints dry
- Reseal when black spots won’t clean off
- Keep bottles off the joints
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, and we’ll say if you need a builder or plumber.
