Regrouting in Broomfield
Regrouting suits shower walls, bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms. It can be a full room, or just the area that has failed. Whatever the size, the method stays the same. If you are dealing with grout in corners that has cracked and gaps where the shower grout has gone, we can help, on shower walls, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom wall tiles alike.
Around Broomfield, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What we do, step by step
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Somewhere as small as Broomfield, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Do you need regrouting in Broomfield?
Soap scum and limescale build up on grout that is hard to shift. In time the grout under it darkens and breaks down, which is when replacing it makes sense.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Old grout in a dated colour
Rented homes near Herne Bay station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

FAQs for Broomfield
Do you cover smaller places like Broomfield?
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 Broomfield in your area for regrouting?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Broomfield is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in a moving joint soon cracks.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do, and we’re fully insured.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Leave it or put it right?
New grout smeared over the old doesn’t bond well. A thin skin on top tends to break off, taking any repair with it. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Broomfield, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

What regrouting looks like in Broomfield
Broomfield is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up 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 Church of St Bartholomew, 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 Herne Church of England Infant School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Rinse the tiles after showering
We will tell you when the area can be used again. Please follow it, and go gently on the grout at first.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left for a few years, they can become a leak so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchen splashbacks
A splashback can be regrouted without touching the worktop. The joint along the worktop is resealed with silicone.
Bathroom floors
Floor grout takes foot traffic as well as water. It gets worn and dirty.
