For landlords and businesses
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.
For anyone letting property in or around Follifoot, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
How we handle bath resealing in Follifoot
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Typical jobs include unsealed corners and leaks at the edges, across shower trays & enclosures, basins & vanity units and baths.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

FAQs for Follifoot
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do you come to Follifoot?
We do. We send a technician to Follifoot for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
How long before I can shower?
Normally after around 24 hours. We’ll tell you the exact time.
How do I stop mould in sealant?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. Mould-resistant silicone and good ventilation help.
How do I get a price for bath resealing in Follifoot?
Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How we price bath resealing
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Rotten walls or floors behind the bath
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Gaps so wide they need filling or trims before sealing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Basins & vanity units
- Baths
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms
- Shower trays & enclosures
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Air the room after use
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
- Keep the joints dry
- Use the extractor fan
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. Split or lifting sealant is a sign it’s time.
Different materials, different repairs
Shower trays
Trays are sealed with weight on them, for the same reason.
Sinks and worktops
Basins, vanity units and kitchen worktops are resealed too, with the joint fully dried first.
Do you need bath resealing in Follifoot?
No sealant lasts for ever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould feeds on, and the joint moves slightly every time the bath is filled.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- An untidy old seal
- Silicone coming away from the tiles
- Leaks at the edges
- Unsealed corners
Comparing quotes
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How to look after the finish
- If travel is included in the price
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- All the old sealant is cut out and removed.
- We clean the joint and treat any mould.
- The joint is dried thoroughly.
- Baths are filled with water first, so the joint is at its widest.
- New mould-resistant silicone goes on and is tooled to a neat finish, including around the taps.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
