Bath & shower resealing (mastic) in Bocking, Essex
Our repair technicians come to Bocking for bath, shower and sink resealing with new mould-resistant silicone. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Gaps in the seal
- Stained silicone
- Missing sealant behind the taps
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep the joints dry
- Clean the sealant gently and regularly
- Use the extractor fan
- Air the room after use
Don’t scrape the sealant with anything sharp, and keep shampoo bottles off the joints.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. It may be more than a reseal, and we will say if you need a builder or plumber.
About our bath resealing in Bocking
A fresh seal protects your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. We regularly repair shower trays & enclosures, kitchen worktops & sinks and basins & vanity units, and people most frequently call us about silicone coming away from the tiles and missing sealant behind the taps.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Why reseal now?
Resealing costs very little and protects the walls and floor. Failed sealant can lead to water damage that is much more expensive. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

- Any mould is treated and the joint dried.
- The bath is filled with water, or weight put on the tray.
- New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Common problems we fix in Bocking
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the sealant itself, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- An untidy old seal
- Sealant that’s split or lifting
- Damp near the bath
- Mould you can’t clean out
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
