Regrouting in Theydon Bois
Problem with your tiled areas in Theydon Bois? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
Regrouting in Theydon Bois, done properly
Our applicators rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. The joints are then vacuumed, regrouted and cleaned off, and the corners get fresh silicone. Common call-outs are for grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor, across kitchen splashbacks, bathroom floors and shower walls.
Smaller places like Theydon Bois still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Whether it’s a cottage bathroom or a newer en suite, the approach is the same: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
FAQs for Theydon Bois
Do you work for landlords with property near Chingford station?

Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Theydon Bois

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements.
What affects the cost of regrouting
We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts.
What we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Whether it has been sealed before
- The problem you’ve noticed
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where. Photos by email help us understand the job.
Regrouting around Theydon Bois
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you live in an older home near Parish Church of St Mary, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For landlords with property near Chingford station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. If you look after a building such as Theydon Bois Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

Related advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Theydon Bois
Grout pens and paint-on colourants only cover the surface. They don’t fill cracks or stop water and stains often come back through. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. In a smaller place like Theydon Bois, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
Before we leave, you will know when the shower can be used. Please follow it, and go gently on the grout at first.
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.
