Regrouting in Force Green

How to look after the new joints

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:

  • Use gentle cleaners on grout
  • Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
  • Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
  • Use a soft brush rather than a wire one

Wipe the tiles down after a shower stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Ventilate the room well to help it dry out.

Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward, before the joints open up.

About our regrouting in Force Green

Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water can get in behind the tiles. We rake it out and replace it and renew the silicone at the edges. If you have dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor and splashback grout that has darkened, we can help, whatever the surface.

Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. For a bathroom or kitchen in Force Green, getting the joints right keeps water where it belongs and the room looking clean.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Force Green

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’s water is hard, 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 Mary the Virgin, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Letting a property close to Oxted station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

How the visit works

When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. For a job in Force Green, parking and access are the things to plan: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.

  1. Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
  2. The old grout is removed to an even depth.
  3. The joints are vacuumed clean.
  4. We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
  5. Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

Surface by surface

Shower walls

Shower walls get wet every day, so its grout takes the most punishment. It generally fails first.

Corners and edges

The joint between tiles and a bath, tray or worktop gets silicone. Grout in that joint wouldn’t last.

Common problems we fix in Force Green

Grout that was put in corners cracks as the bath or tray moves. They need flexible sealant, and when they are not, water gets in.

People normally contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Grout that makes sound tiles look old
  • Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
  • Crumbling grout between the tiles
  • Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned

Force Green is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

How to choose a mastic man

Leave it or put it right?

If tiles are loose, regrouting alone is not the answer. We will tell you before we start, so you can decide what to do. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting is far less disruptive than retiling. In a flat in Force Green, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

  • We are fully insured

  • Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild

DIY versus a professional finish

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Your questions about regrouting in Force Green

Can worn sealant in a flat in Force Green cause a leak downstairs?

Yes, and the first sign is often a stain on the ceiling below. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a new bead early stops it getting that far.

Do you take on hotel work around Force Green?

Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

We are based in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

What does regrouting cost?

Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.

Should corners be grouted or sealed?

Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in those joints cracks as the building moves.

Is it messy?

No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

Do you work in Force Green?

Yes. We work in Force Green and the rest of Greater London, as part of our work across South East England, London and Scotland. To book, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
