Trusted regrouting in Blackboys

Regrouting in Blackboys, done properly

Regrouting is normally paired with resealing. Grout is for the joints between tiles, but corners and edges move, so they need flexible silicone instead. Renewing both together means nothing is left half-done. We work on tiled floors, bathroom wall tiles and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are greasy, stained grout behind the hob and floor grout that won’t come clean.

Being in a small place like Blackboys makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Can I do it myself?

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Surface by surface

Bathroom floors

Cracked floor grout can point to movement underneath. We check the tiles before regrouting.

Bathroom wall tiles

Whole bathroom walls can be regrouted in one visit or more, depending on the area. It’s a good time to change the grout colour.

Blackboys homes and their sealant

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

If you let a flat or house near Buxted station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

The process

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room for a typical job. Somewhere like Blackboys needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
  2. We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
  3. Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
  4. New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
  5. We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.

How to prepare

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Why deal with it now?

Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. A thin skin on top tends to break off, taking any repair with it. Removing the old grout to an even depth lets the new grout key in properly. Older cottages and farmhouses around Blackboys 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 we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

Blackboys: your questions answered

Is Blackboys within the area you cover?

Yes. Blackboys is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Is Blackboys in your area for regrouting?

Yes, Blackboys is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.

How long should I wait before showering?

Before we leave, we’ll tell you how long to wait. Both the grout and the silicone need time to cure before they get wet.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Blackboys, along with the rest of our area.

Can you regrout just the shower?

Yes, we often do. The shower generally fails first, so many people regrout just that part.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?

Flexible sealant. Grout belongs between the tiles and moving joints need sealant.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.

What we can’t put right

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before we start. It won’t solve:

  • Tiles that are chipped or split
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A floor or wall that keeps moving

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.

What we seal

  • Tiled floors
  • Shower walls
  • Bathroom floors
  • Kitchen splashbacks
  • Wet rooms
  • Bathroom wall tiles

Common problems we fix in Blackboys

Soap scum and limescale build up on grout that’s hard to shift. The grout beneath can stain and weaken, which is when replacing it makes sense.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Splashback grout that has darkened
  • Cracked or crumbling grout lines
  • A grout colour that no longer suits the room
  • Floor grout that will not come clean

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Blackboys Church of England Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
