Regrouting for homes and businesses in Walton Manor
Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water has a way in behind the tiling. We rake it out and replace it, then reseal the corners and edges. We work on tiled floors, bathroom floors and kitchen splashbacks, and common reasons people get in touch are stained grout that cleaning won’t shift and good tiles let down by tired grout.
Homes around Walton Manor range from older cottages to more recent houses. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.

When it isn’t the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- A leaking shower valve or waste
- Movement in a stud wall or floor
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind

What happens on the day
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. A visit to Walton Manor is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Advice
What happens if it’s left?
Cracked grout lets water behind the tiles. Leave it, and the adhesive or the wall behind can suffer, which turns a regrout into a retile. Sorting it early keeps the job simple. In an older home around Walton Manor, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Regrouting around Walton Manor
Walton Manor has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. 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 Oxford station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. Managing a site like St Aloysius' Catholic Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. It’s the part that moves, so the sealant there will need renewing in time, long before the grout does.
Cracked grout doesn’t stay cracked for long. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.

Surface by surface
Bathroom floors
Regrouting a floor brightens the whole room. The edges where floor meets wall or bath get silicone.
Bathroom wall tiles
Tiles away from the shower stay drier but still stain and crack. New grout freshens them up.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
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.
FAQs for Walton Manor
Do you take on hotel work around Walton Manor?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Will you come out to Walton Manor?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
We can. We’ll look at the rest of the room too and let you know if more needs doing.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
It can. Because the old grout is raked out, the new colour goes all the way into the joint rather than sitting on top.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
