Regrouting in Maple Cross
Regrouting across Maple Cross and nearby, with every bit of old sealant taken out first.
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
Regrouting in Maple Cross
We check the tiles before any grout comes out. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, because regrouting will not fix what’s behind them. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. We work on wet rooms, kitchen splashbacks and tiled floors, and the jobs we see most are discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and grout washed out of a shower.
Around Maple Cross, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

How the job changes by surface
Kitchen splashbacks
Grout behind the hob and sink works hard. We renew the grout and the worktop sealant.
Bathroom wall tiles
Tiles away from the shower stay drier but grout there still discolours. Regrouting brings them back in line.
Do you need regrouting in Maple Cross?
Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down over time, leaving the joints sunken and rough.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor

How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room from start to finish. For a village or hamlet like Maple Cross, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Is the work guaranteed?

What if some of my tiles are loose?
Loose or hollow tiles are a sign of a problem behind them. Regrouting alone isn’t the answer, and we’ll tell you before work begins.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Maple Cross and the rest of Hertfordshire, along with the rest of our area.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
What sealant work cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
- A leaking shower valve or waste
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Regrouting around Maple Cross
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Maple Cross Junior Mixed Infant and Nursery 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. If you live in an older home near Church of St Thomas of Canterbury, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

What affects the quote in Maple Cross
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- The size of the job
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The number of rooms or windows
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Where the property is
- A few photos by email, if you can
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details and send photos if you have them.
Why deal with it now?
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They won’t fill gaps or keep water out and stains often come back through. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. Around Maple Cross, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Have loose tiles looked at early
A squeegee or cloth over the tiles after use stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Ventilate the room well so the grout dries between uses.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. At this point it’s a simple regrout, before the joints open up.
