Regrouting for Malvern's Villas, Flats and Townhouses
Malvern is still mostly houses β Victorian and Federation villas on heritage streets like the Claremont Avenue precinct, plus interwar and post-war flat blocks off Glenferrie Road and Malvern Road. Our grouting repairs in Malvern start with the joints, not the tiles: we cut out failed grout and rebuild it, so good tiles you'd rather keep get a second life.
Bathrooms in these homes have usually been renovated β sometimes more than once β and many owners chose tiles worth keeping. When the grout cracks, stains or goes mouldy, regrouting in Malvern brings the whole room back for a fraction of a renovation. And once the shower looks fresh, most owners have us do the floor and walls in the same visit so everything matches.

Shower Regrouting in Malvern
Cracked, stained or mouldy shower grout? A shower regrout replaces it β and the old silicone β in one visit, tiles left in place. In Malvern the job often grows: once the shower is fresh, the tired floor grout beside it stands out, so we regrout floor and walls together for a matching finish.
What a Groutix Shower Regrout Includes
- 1Old grout cut out to depth, not painted over.
- 2Shower, floor and wall grout done together if you want a matching finish.
- 3Old silicone stripped and replaced, not layered over.
- 4Your choice of cement grout with sealer, or epoxy grout.
Tile Regrouting for Floors, Laundries and Kitchens
Floor grout wears fastest in the rooms you use most. Tile regrouting in Malvern covers bathroom floors, laundries and kitchen splashbacks right through the house β cut out and replaced, without retiling.
Bathroom Floors
Tired, stained floor grout cut out and replaced so the whole room matches.
Laundries
Floors and splashbacks that take water every day, regrouted to last.
Kitchen Splashbacks
Stained or cracked grout behind the sink and cooktop refreshed.
A Few Cracked Tiles
Two or three cracked tiles replaced and regrouted, matched as closely as we can.

Leaking Shower Repair in Malvern
In a single-storey villa, a leaking shower shows up next door, not below: lifting floorboards, swollen skirting, a damp patch on the hallway wall. We find where the water is escaping, fix the grout and seals β and tell you straight if it's a membrane or plumbing problem instead.
Lifting Floorboards
Boards cupping or lifting outside the bathroom door.
Swollen Skirting
Skirting swelling or paint bubbling near the shower.
Damp Wall Next Door
A damp patch on the other side of the shower wall.
Cracked Base Grout
Gaps where the shower floor meets the walls.
How We Tell Grout From Membrane
We check the grout, silicone and tiles for cracks, gaps and movement before we quote. If the waterproofing under the tiles has failed, regrouting alone won't fix it β and we'll say so. Under NCC 2022, shower walls must be waterproofed to at least 1,800 mm. More on leaking shower repair.
Balconies, Verandahs and Outdoor Tiles
Malvern's flats and townhouses have tiled balconies, and plenty of older homes have slate or terracotta front verandahs and paths. Balcony regrouting in Malvern fixes failed grout and silicone at the door sill and edges; where the joints have washed out, tiles loosen and water gets underneath.
Balconies
Failed grout and silicone at the door sill and edges cut out, resealed and regrouted with outdoor-grade grout.
Slate and Terracotta Verandahs
The odd loose tile re-fixed and joints regrouted where suitable β we tell you if it needs relaying.
Paths and Entries
Washed-out joints regrouted so tiles stop rocking underfoot.
Relaying a whole verandah or path is a paving job β we'll tell you if yours needs it. More on balcony leak repairs.
Areas We Cover Around Malvern
Malvern 3144, plus Malvern East, Armadale and Glen Iris β one page, one crew, same week.
Malvern East 3145
Regrouting in Malvern East
From the older streets near Malvern towards Chadstone: post-war houses, units and newer townhouses. Family bathrooms and ensuites get daily use here, so floor grout and shower silicone go first. We regrout showers, floors and laundries right across Malvern East.
Armadale 3143
Regrouting in Armadale
Between High Street's shops and Malvern Road: grand Victorian homes, terraces and blocks of flats. Older bathrooms here often have small tiles and fine grout lines, so we take care to match the colour and keep every tile in place.
Glen Iris 3146
Regrouting in Glen Iris
Straddling Gardiners Creek, on both the Stonnington and Boroondara sides. Family homes sit alongside townhouses and units with balconies β balcony leak repair in Glen Iris usually means edge joints and door sills. We regrout and reseal balconies, showers and floors on both sides of the creek.

Malvern Regrouting FAQs
Can you regrout my whole bathroom floor, not just the shower?
Yes. We regrout shower floors and walls, the main bathroom floor, laundries and kitchen splashbacks. Doing the shower and floor together gives an even, matching finish and saves a second visit.
Can you replace a few cracked tiles and regrout around them?
Yes. We replace the odd cracked or loose tile as a small tiling job and regrout around it. If you have spare tiles from the original job, keep them for us; otherwise we match as closely as we can.
My front verandah has loose slate or terracotta tiles. Can you fix it?
We can re-fix the odd loose tile and regrout the joints where suitable. If most of the verandah has lifted or the base underneath has failed, it needs relaying, and we'll tell you that up front.
How can I tell if it's the grout or the waterproofing?
If water only appears after the shower runs and the grout or silicone is cracked, it's usually the surface. If walls or floors stay damp, tiles are loose or the leak continues after a reseal, the membrane may have failed. We check before we quote.
Do you cover Glen Iris on both sides of Gardiners Creek?
Yes. We work across all of Glen Iris 3146, on the Stonnington and Boroondara sides of Gardiners Creek, as well as Malvern, Malvern East and Armadale.
Should I seal my grout after regrouting?
With cement grout, a penetrating sealer helps it resist water and stains, and it should be renewed every so often. Epoxy grout doesn't need sealing. We'll tell you which suits your shower or floor.
