Regrouting in Falconwood
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. Light grout can go darker to hide marks or back again. Just mention the colour you’d like when you ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. Typical jobs include splashback grout that has darkened and crumbling grout between the tiles, on tiled floors, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom wall tiles.
Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. In Falconwood, regrouting is as much about a room looking cared for as about keeping water out.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. In a London area like Falconwood, 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.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that is easy.
Advice
Questions from Falconwood
Is parking an issue for regrouting in Falconwood?
Parking in Falconwood, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot.
I live in a flat in Falconwood. Can a failed seal leak into the flat below?
Yes, and the first sign is often a stain on the ceiling below. A proper reseal before the leak starts is the easy fix.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Falconwood and the rest of Greater London, along with the rest of our area.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Yes, in most cases. New grout beside old sealant wouldn’t look right and could still leak.
How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?
You will get a clear time from us before we go. Both the grout and the silicone need time to cure before the shower is used.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Do the sealants smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
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. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.

How the job changes by surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Grout by the basin and bath tends to mark first. We can regroute just those areas or the whole wall.
Bathroom floors
Floor grout takes foot traffic as well as water. It wears and darkens over time.
Falconwood homes and their sealant
London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early. London has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Rented homes near Welling station change hands often, and stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. In the older streets around Bishop Ridley Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Managing a site like Bishop Ridley Church of England VA Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What else we do in Falconwood
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
A squeegee or cloth over the tiles after use keeps water off the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window to help it dry out.
Cracked grout does not stay cracked for long. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
