Regrouting in Temple Fortune
We work across Temple Fortune, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, and we finish by resealing the edges. Common call-outs are for stained grout that cleaning won’t shift and old grout in a dated colour, on tiled floors, bathroom floors and wet rooms.
In much of London, period terraces have been converted into flats over the years, and bathrooms were often squeezed into small rooms. A compact bathroom that steams up every day is hard on silicone and grout, and homes in Temple Fortune are no different.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Your questions about regrouting in Temple Fortune
Could a tired shower seal in my Temple Fortune flat affect the neighbours below?
Yes, and the first sign is often a stain on the ceiling below. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a new bead early stops it getting that far.
Is parking a problem for a job in Temple Fortune?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
How long does regrouting take?
That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. We’ll tell you when we quote.
Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?
If tiles are loose, something behind them has normally failed. Regrouting alone isn’t the answer, and we will tell you before work begins.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Temple Fortune, along with the rest of our area.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Flexible sealant. Grout is for the joints between tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes. Many jobs are just the shower walls, or just the joints that have failed.
What affects the cost of regrouting
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- When we can work, for business premises
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- The problem you’ve noticed
- The rough size of the job
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. Whenever you are ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords and letting agents in Temple Fortune can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

What else we do in Temple Fortune
What the job involves on each surface
Shower walls
Shower walls are the most common area we regrout. Gaps here let water get behind the tiling.
Bathroom floors
Grout on a floor is walked on as well as wetted. It gets worn and dirty.
When something else is needed
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- A leaking shower valve or waste
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Tiles that are chipped or split
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Bathroom floors
- Shower walls
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Tiled floors
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Wet rooms
Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it can harden properly. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and keep the room ventilated.
Stains that won’t clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. At this point it’s a simple regrout, before the joints open up.
Leave it or put it right?
Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. It sits thinly on top and soon flakes away, taking any repair with it. Removing the old grout to an even depth lets the new grout key in properly. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Dealing with it early is far simpler.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

What we do, step by step
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The visit itself normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, depending on the size of the job. In Temple Fortune, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.
- We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
- New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Advice
Regrouting in Temple Fortune: local notes
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Temple Fortune. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early.
Rented homes near Brent Cross West station change hands often, and clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. For an older house near a landmark such as Saint Mary and Archangel Michael Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Temple Fortune is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
