Bathroom caulking and repairs in North York often mean working on an original bathroom that has never been touched. The pink or mint four inch wall tile in a Willowdale or Don Mills bungalow is set hard in mortar, and the grout has gone soft in the corners where water lands.
I cut out the failed silicone at the tub, rake and refill tired grout, and reset any tile that has let go. If the bathroom sits in a basement suite or a Yonge Street condo, I plan around what the building or the tenant needs.
