Do you need regrouting in Shirley Oaks?
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.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Stained grout that cleaning won’t shift
Schools such as Oasis Academy Shirley Park are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Before you book anyone
- What preparation is included
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
How we handle regrouting in Shirley Oaks
Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water can get in behind the tiles. We rake it out and replace it, then reseal the corners and edges. If you have splashback grout that has darkened and corners filled with grout instead of silicone, we can help.
In much of London, period terraces have been converted into flats over the years, with bathrooms fitted into whatever space was available. A compact bathroom that steams up every day is hard on silicone and grout, and homes in Shirley Oaks are no different.
Every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

What the job involves on each surface
Shower walls
Showers put more water on grout than anywhere else. We rake it out and regrout and renew the silicone at the edges.
Bathroom floors
If floor grout keeps cracking, the floor may be moving. We check the tiles before regrouting.
Common questions in Shirley Oaks
Do you work for landlords with property near Elmers End station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Is parking an issue for regrouting in Shirley Oaks?
It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
What does regrouting cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?
We will tell you on the day. It depends on the grout and the sealant used, so follow the time we give you.
Do you work in Shirley Oaks?
Yes, we do. Shirley Oaks is part of the area we cover, and the service is the same as everywhere else.
What guarantee comes with the work?
Our 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. We are also fully insured.
When something else is needed
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Tiles that are chipped or split
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Quotes for regrouting in Shirley Oaks
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Access and height
- The product the joint needs
- The number and length of the joints
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- Where the property is
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- A few photos by email, if you can
We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and describe the job and send photos if you have them.
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
Check the corner silicone now and then. It’s the part that moves, so the sealant there will need renewing in time.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. Once that happens, regrouting will not fix it so early action pays.
Landlord and commercial work in Shirley Oaks
Landlords and agents in Shirley Oaks can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Shirley Oaks. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.

Preparing for the visit

Related advice
Bathrooms and kitchens in Shirley Oaks
London has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. In a London flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal can reach the neighbours below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early.
In the older streets around Shirley Methodist Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. As a London address, Shirley Oaks can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
