- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it cures fully. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and keep the room ventilated.
If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Each shower drives water into the open joints and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.
About our regrouting in Upper Farringdon
We take the old grout out to a consistent depth, without damaging the edges of the tiles. After vacuuming, new grout goes in and the tiles are wiped clean, with silicone renewed in the corners. We’re often asked to deal with discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and cracked grout along the bath or tray, across bathroom wall tiles, shower walls and bathroom floors.
For a small place like Upper Farringdon, regrouting is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Upper Farringdon questions
Do you cover Upper Farringdon for regrouting?
Yes, Upper Farringdon is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.
Do you cover smaller places like Upper Farringdon?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?
New grout cannot hold loose tiles in place. We check the tiles first and tell you if any are loose or hollow so you know where you stand.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Upper Farringdon, along with the rest of our area.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
What guarantee comes with the work?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, including regrouting.
Regrouting around Upper Farringdon
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.
Letting a property close to Alton station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Leave it or put it right?
Regrouting keeps the tiles you already have. Retiling means stripping the walls, making good and choosing new tiles, and the room is out of use for longer. If the tiles are sound, regrouting is the simpler fix. Older cottages and farmhouses around Upper Farringdon can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before any work starts.

How the visit works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Somewhere as small as Upper Farringdon, 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.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

What we are called out for in Upper Farringdon
Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down with repeated use, until the joints are rough and low.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of All Saints, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
What to look for in a quote
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- How long to leave it before use
- The length of the guarantee
What we cannot put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A leaking wet room membrane
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What affects the cost of regrouting
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of sealant required
- How much there is to do
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How many areas need sealing
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Helping us quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- The type of property
- Whether it has been sealed before
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that’s easier. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll talk you through the work.
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, 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: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
