For landlords and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Regrouting in Wolvercote, done properly
Before any work starts, the tiles are checked. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, because regrouting will not fix what’s behind them. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. Typical jobs include floor grout that has worn and darkened and old grout in a dated colour, across kitchen splashbacks, bathroom wall tiles and tiled floors.
Homes around Wolvercote are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
All our work comes with our 12-month guarantee.

When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Why deal with it now?
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. Around Wolvercote, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will talk you through it.

How we quote for regrouting
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Working hours on commercial sites
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.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- Roughly how big the job is
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Questions from Wolvercote
Is Wolvercote within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
I let a flat near Oxford Parkway station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Corners get silicone, not grout. They move slightly and grout can’t take that movement.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, and we are fully insured.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Are you 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?
Yes. Because the old grout is raked out, the new colour goes all the way into the joint rather than sitting on top.
Wolvercote homes and their sealant
Wolvercote 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, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Rented homes near Oxford Parkway station change hands often, and clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. Managing a site like Wolvercote Primary School? Then washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

How it works
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room for a typical job. Somewhere like Wolvercote needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention any tricky access
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Related advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Rinse the tiles after showering
If a tile starts to feel loose, get it looked at early. A loose tile cracks the grout around it and open a path for water.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left for a few years, they can become a leak so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
Signs you need regrouting in Wolvercote
A bathroom that stays damp keeps the grout wet, giving mould a place to grow. Black marks that come back after cleaning are often in the grout itself.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
In the older streets around Church of St Peter, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
