Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can be quoted together.
Regrouting in Matchams
Our applicators rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. After vacuuming, new grout goes in and the tiles are wiped clean, with silicone renewed in the corners. We are often asked to deal with grout stained black or orange that won’t clean and grout washed out of a shower, across bathroom wall tiles, shower walls and wet rooms.
Being in a small place like Matchams makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Regrouting in Matchams: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
In and around Matchams, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Matchams is in Hampshire. We carry out regrouting for homes and businesses in Matchams and the surrounding area. Matchams is one of 683 places in Hampshire we cover for regrouting. We also work in Southampton, about 20 miles from Matchams.
Every address in BH24 is within our area for regrouting. If you need regrouting at a property on Maple Walk, Ash Tree Close and Sycamore Way or anywhere close by, our applicators can take on the job. We also cover Avon Castle (1 mile north-east), St Ives (1 mile north), St Leonards (1 mile north-west) and Ashley Heath (2 miles north-west). Larger places within reach include Totton (15 miles north-east), Lymington (12 miles east), New Milton (8 miles south-east), Ringwood (3 miles north-east), Barton on Sea (8 miles south-east) and Ashley (9 miles south-east).
Landmarks near Matchams
We work in homes and buildings around Avon Heath Country Park, among other places. Nearby you will also find St Leonard's Hospital (1.7 miles west). Not far away are St Catherine's Hill and Blashford Lakes.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
If a tile starts to feel loose, get it looked at early. Movement will crack the new grout and lets water in.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
Common questions in Matchams
Is Matchams in your area for regrouting?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Matchams is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Is Matchams within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Flexible sealant. Grout belongs between the tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes, regrouting is the time to do it. Tell us the colour you’d like when you ask for a quote.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Common problems we fix in Matchams
Grout that was put in corners cracks because those joints flex. They need flexible sealant, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
The most common problems we see are:
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
Whether the job is in Matchams itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is chosen
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Whether they’re fully insured
What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Cracked or broken tiles
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

The process
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. In a small place like Matchams, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
- We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
