- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Shower grout that has worn away
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
Wipe the tiles down after a shower keeps water off the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window so the grout dries between uses.
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.
How we handle regrouting in York Town
Regrouting is usually paired with resealing. Grout belongs between tiles, but internal corners and edges flex, so they need flexible silicone instead. Doing both at once leaves the whole area sound. We work on wet rooms, bathroom floors and kitchen splashbacks, and the jobs we see most are discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and gaps where the shower grout has gone.
Around York Town, you’ll mostly find houses and bungalows, from older cottages to newer builds. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

How the job changes by surface
Bathroom floors
Regrouting a floor brightens the whole room. The edges where floor meets wall or bath get silicone.
Bathroom wall tiles
Grout by the basin and bath tends to mark first. We can do part of a wall or all of it.
What we’re called out for in York Town
Some grout fails because it was mixed or laid badly. If it was mixed too wet or not pressed in firmly tends to wash out early.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
For landlords with property near Camberley station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Is VAT in the price?
What happens on the day
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The visit itself usually takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, depending on the size of the job. In a smaller place like York Town, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- 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
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

Advice
Regrouting in York Town: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Schools such as South Camberley Primary and Nursery School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Michael York Town, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

FAQs for York Town
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Camberley station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, it will not last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
What if some of my tiles are loose?
If tiles are loose, something behind them has usually failed. Grout on its own won’t fix that, and we’ll tell you before any work starts.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover York Town, along with the rest of our area.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
We seal corners with silicone. They move slightly and grout can’t take that movement.
What should I tell you?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
For landlords and businesses

Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Honest limits
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
- Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.
