Regrouting in Fairlop
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. You might go from white to grey or back again. Just mention the colour you’d like when you phone 07833 053749 or email us. We work on shower walls, bathroom wall tiles and bathroom floors, and common reasons people get in touch are stained grout that cleaning won’t shift and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease. Looking for a local mastic man in Fairlop? Mr Mastic covers Fairlop.
London homes include a lot of flats, conversions and mansion blocks, and many bathrooms sit right above someone else’s ceiling. In Fairlop, that’s a good reason to put tired sealant and grout right early.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

What affects the cost of regrouting
We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Access and height
- The number and length of the joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
Asking for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- If someone has resealed it before
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Just call 07833 053749 or send us an email with the details, and photos are welcome.
When something else is needed
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Cracked or broken tiles
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
If in doubt, phone 07833 053749 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Tiled floors
- Bathroom floors
- Shower walls
- Wet rooms
Regrouting around Fairlop
London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, which is why it’s worth fixing early. London has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you live in an older home near St Francis of Assisi, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Schools such as Fairlop Primary School are buildings too, and 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. If you let a flat or house near Seven Kings station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.
Fairlop is about 2 miles east of Woodford, in Greater London. Jobs in Fairlop get the same care as everywhere else we work: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee. We cover 786 towns and villages across Greater London, from the larger towns to small villages.

Local landmarks in Fairlop

The nearest railway station is Seven Kings station, about 2.5 miles south of the centre. A little further out are Claybury Hospital (0.7 miles west) and Redbridge Museum (2.9 miles south). Not far away are Pole Hill and Highams Park Lake.
Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
Before we leave, you will know when the shower can be used. Please follow it, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
Stains that will not clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. At this point it’s a simple regrout while the tiles are still sound.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you are 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 peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a London area like Fairlop, the main things to plan are parking and access: let us know about parking, the floor we’ll be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Common questions in Fairlop
I let a flat near Seven Kings station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Just call 07833 053749 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is parking a problem for a job in Fairlop?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot, so mention what’s available when you book.
What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
When can I use the shower again?
We will tell you on the day. The wait depends on the products and conditions, so follow the time we give you.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
What the job involves on each surface
Bathroom floors
Grout on a floor is walked on as well as wetted. It gets worn and dirty.
Shower walls
Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.
