Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Very wide gaps that need a trim
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Hidden water damage
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Wet rooms
- Baths
- Shower trays & enclosures
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Basins & vanity units
Why it’s worth resealing in Bocking's Elm
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, which costs far more to put right. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One visit for most repairs
- One-year guarantee on every repair

What we’re called out for in Bocking's Elm
Most reseals are because of black mould. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning can’t get it all out.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Gaps by the taps
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
- Stained silicone
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- How the room is protected while they work
- What aftercare is recommended
- Who turns up on the day
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take about two hours for a bath, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is protected and the joints masked.
- We remove the old sealant and every trace of residue.
- We clean, treat and dry the joint.
- Fresh silicone is applied in a continuous bead.
- The bead is smoothed, the tape removed and the seal left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Bocking's Elm: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How long will it take?
A bath or shower normally takes a couple of hours. It then needs time to cure.

We will give you the curing time, typically around a day.

Why does the silicone keep cracking?
Something is moving. If it keeps happening, the support may need fixing.

What affects the price in Bocking's Elm
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
