FAQs for Bocking
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Bocking?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Braintree station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No. A bead laid over old silicone soon starts to come away. Every trace of the old bead is removed first.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is it messy?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

We do. Our applicators work in Bocking, and the service is the same as everywhere else.

What the job involves on each surface
Sinks & splashbacks
Water getting under the rim of an inset sink can soak the worktop. We reseal the visible edge of the sink where it has failed.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
The joint between worktop and wall takes splashes, crumbs and cleaning sprays. We seal them in a colour that suits the worktop, so the line does not stand out.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
When to call us in Bocking
No sealant lasts indefinitely. Daily water, heat and cleaning products slowly wear it down, and how long it lasts comes down to use, cleaning and ventilation.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Splits where the tray meets the wall
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- A messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
Letting a property close to Braintree station? Then fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.
Before booking anyone
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Do not let bottles sit on the bead
- Stick to a soft cloth and a mild cleaner
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Wipe the sealant dry after showering
Keep bottles and razors off the sealant line, because they trap water against the silicone. Squeegeeing the walls and tray after use keeps water from sitting on the joint.
There’s no need to wait for a full refurbishment. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and renewing it as soon as it fails protects everything around it.
Why it’s worth doing now in Bocking
Sorting it now is quick: the work takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. Homes in smaller places like Bocking can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before work begins.

Bathroom resealing around Bocking
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Bocking. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Peter, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Francis Catholic Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

How it works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included and we leave things clean and tidy. Parking around Bocking is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
