Balls Cross questions
Do you cover smaller places like Balls Cross?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is regrouting in Balls Cross guaranteed?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
How long should I wait before showering?
The wait depends on the materials and how warm the room is. We’ll give you a time to follow when the job is done.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes, regrouting is the time to do it. Mention the colour you have in mind when you phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Balls Cross
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For an older house near a landmark such as Holy Trinity Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

When to call us in Balls Cross
Hard water and soap leave a film on grout and stick to it. The grout beneath can stain and weaken, and at that point, new grout is the better answer.
The most common problems we see are:
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
In and around Balls Cross, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Is VAT in the price?
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Keep the fan on after showering
Before we leave, you will know when the shower can be used. Please follow it, and go gently on the grout at first.
Stains that won’t clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. At this point it’s a simple regrout while the tiles are still sound.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Balls Cross
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

What else we do in Balls Cross
Why it’s worth doing now in Balls Cross
Cleaning products may brighten grout for a time, but stains and mould that have soaked in tend to return. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. Older cottages and farmhouses around Balls Cross can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

How the job changes by surface
Kitchen splashbacks
Splashback grout picks up grease and cooking stains. Stained grout is best replaced.
Wet rooms
Both the grout and the silicone in a wet room matter. We renew both.
Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
