Regrouting around Sleaford
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale 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 Bentley (Hampshire) station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. In the older streets around Church of All Saints, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Common questions in Sleaford
Do you work for landlords with property near Bentley (Hampshire) station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Can you do regrouting in Sleaford?

How long does regrouting take?
A typical job takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.
Can I do it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
What if some of my tiles are loose?
Loose or hollow tiles are a sign of a problem behind them. Regrouting alone is not the answer and we’ll say so before going ahead.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Check the corner silicone every few months
Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. Corners flex, so it’s normally the first thing to need attention.
Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
Signs you need regrouting in Sleaford
Some grout fails because it was mixed or laid badly. Grout that was too wet, not packed in or cleaned off too hard can wash out within a few years.
People generally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Stained grout that cleaning won’t shift
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Grout washed out of a shower
Schools such as Mill Chase Academy are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

How the job changes by surface
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the whole floor gets wet, so good grout is important. We check the tiles first.
Bathroom floors
Regrouting a floor brightens the whole room. Floor-to-wall and bath joints are sealed, not grouted.
Why it’s worth doing now in Sleaford
Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. A thin skin on top tends to break off. Removing the old grout to an even depth lets the new grout key in properly. Older cottages and farmhouses around Sleaford can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
What you get with us
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Tidy, careful work
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- One-year guarantee on every job
Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
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 fails, we can still redo it.
How it works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Somewhere as small as Sleaford, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
