What affects the quote in Ballingdon Bottom
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number of rooms or windows

- The old material and how stubborn it is
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:

- Whether it has been sealed before
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
If you are in Ballingdon Bottom and need regrouting, call 0345 464 0079 or email us. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we’ll agree the price before any work begins.
Ballingdon Bottom homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Rented homes near Berkhamsted station change hands often, and stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Gaddesden Row JMI School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Questions from Ballingdon Bottom
Is Ballingdon Bottom within the area you cover?
Yes. Ballingdon Bottom is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is Ballingdon Bottom in your area for regrouting?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Ballingdon Bottom is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Ballingdon Bottom.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, it will not last. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Can I do 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.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?
Yes. A lot of our jobs are only the shower, or just the joints that have failed.
How the job changes by surface
Bathroom floors
If floor grout keeps cracking, the floor may be moving. We check the tiles before regrouting.
Bathroom wall tiles
Tiles away from the shower stay drier but still stain and crack. Regrouting brings them back in line.
How the visit works
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. In a small place like Ballingdon Bottom, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
- Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
- We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Advice
What happens if it’s left?
Bleach can lighten stained grout for a while, but stains and mould that have soaked in tend to return. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Ballingdon Bottom, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before work begins.
Why Ballingdon Bottom customers choose us

Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it cures fully. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and let the room air.
Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
