How we handle regrouting in Otford
A bathroom with good tiles can still look worn if the grout has gone. With regrouting, the tiles stay and only the grout is renewed, so nothing is ripped out. Typical jobs include grout stained black or orange that won’t clean and floor grout that won’t come clean, across bathroom floors, wet rooms and bathroom wall tiles.
Around Otford, you will mostly find houses and bungalows, from older cottages to newer builds. Bathrooms and kitchens here get the same daily wear as anywhere, and the sealant and grout show it first.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What we are called out for in Otford
Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it with repeated use, until the joints are rough and low.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
Homes close to Church of St Bartholomew include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Questions to ask before booking
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Whether VAT is included
- What product goes in the joint
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
Otford homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Letting a property close to Otford station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Otford Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. It generally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. For a job in Otford, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.
How to prepare
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Advice
Places near Otford
What else we do in Otford
Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into 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.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together.
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.
Otford questions
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Otford station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Otford?
Yes, Otford is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you grout the corners?
Corners get silicone, not grout. They move slightly, and grout there cracks.
What if some of my tiles are loose?
Loose tiles need refixing before regrouting. We’ll show you which ones at the start.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Don’t ignore a tile that feels loose
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
Before we leave, you’ll know when the shower can be used. Stick to that time, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
Stains that won’t clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.
How the job changes by surface
Kitchen splashbacks
Kitchen grout collects grease and food splashes. Once it’s stained, new grout is often the only fix.
Shower walls
A shower wall is soaked daily, so its grout takes the most punishment. It usually fails first.
