Fir Toll homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around Church of St Nicholas, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Pluckley Church of England Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What we’re called out for in Fir Toll
Silicone does not last for ever. Daily water, heat and cleaning products take their toll over the years, so its life depends on how the room is used, cleaned and aired.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Leaking joints on a shower screen
- A bead that has pulled away from the tiles
- Black mould in the silicone that won’t clean off
If you let a flat or house near Pluckley station, a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for.

What sealant work can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

What we do, step by step
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Somewhere like Fir Toll needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- With the joint dry, and any bath loaded with water, a single bead of anti-fungal silicone is applied.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, normally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Advice
Fir Toll questions
Will you come out to Fir Toll?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is Fir Toll in your area for bathroom resealing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Fir Toll is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll explain our choice.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
You are not limited to white: white, clear and colours to suit tiles and worktops. We can help you pick when we quote.
Will it make a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How we quote for bathroom resealing
There’s no set price list. What we look at:
- The type of sealant required
- The number of rooms or windows
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any mould that needs treating
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- If someone has resealed it before
- Whether it’s a home or a business

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Why deal with it now?
Bleach and mould sprays may lighten black marks for a while, but mould that has grown into the sealant tends to return. Cutting it out and resealing with anti-fungal silicone is the fix that lasts. Older cottages and farmhouses around Fir Toll can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Combining jobs into one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear price for the lot.
What you get with us
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- One-year guarantee on every job
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild

How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Check the joints every few months for splits or lifting
- Squeegee the walls and tray after use
- Move toiletries away from the joint
Have a look at the joints every few months. Small splits and lifting ends are easy to catch early, and if anything looks wrong, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Small signs come before a leak: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.
