About our regrouting in Linford
Before work begins, the tiles are checked. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, because regrouting won’t fix what’s behind them. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. If you have greasy, stained grout behind the hob and cracked or crumbling grout lines, we can help, whatever the surface.
Around Linford, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Regrouting around Linford
Linford is within about 2 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you let a flat or house near East Tilbury station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. Homes close to St Francis include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Linford is about 3 miles south-west of Stanford-le-Hope, in Thurrock. Whether you’re in the middle of Linford or further out, we cover regrouting for every kind of property.

What we’re called out for in Linford
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it with repeated use, until the joints are rough and low.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
If you look after a building such as East Tilbury 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.

For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Tiles that are chipped or split
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Bathroom floors
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Wet rooms
- Shower walls
- Tiled floors
Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
If a tile starts to feel loose, get it looked at early. Movement will crack the new grout and lets water in.
Grout that’s washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Each shower drives water into the open joints, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.
FAQs for Linford
Do you cover smaller places like Linford?
Yes, Linford is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near East Tilbury station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we are fully insured too.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we are fully insured.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Usually, yes. The corners and edges should be silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?
Yes. It’s the ideal time to change it. Mention the colour you have in mind when you call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
How the visit works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Somewhere as small as Linford, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Related advice
What happens if it’s left?
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They will not fill gaps or keep water out, and stains can show through again. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. In a small place like Linford, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
