Here is a sample of my own work.
Total Shower Refurbishment in Canterbury
This shower had grout missing on the shower base, and the grout on the wall was discoloured and had mould in the grout and silicone.
The best solution was a complete “Shower Makeover” which involved replacing the porous cement-based grout on the base with a highly water and stain resistant Epoxy grout, replacing all of the silicone on the walls and base after treating the mould in the joints, and recolouring and sealing the existing grout on the shower walls.
The result was a shower that looked as good if not better than when it was first installed and had the highest level of water and stain protect possible.
The only other alternative to achieve this would have been a total regrout of the walls which would have significantly increased the cost and risked damage to the tiles or waterproofing.
Mosaic Benchtop revived in Rangiora
The grout in this mosaic tiled benchtop and splashback had severely discoloured over the years and the customer wanted it revived. It was cleaned and the grout was recoloured and sealed using our unique Colourseal product. This solution did not require removal of the existing grout so there was no risk of damaging any of the small tiles.
It looked just like new again!
An easy to maintain tiled kitchen floor in Christchurch
This kitchen floor had discoloured grout. Being a high traffic area, this is common in all homes as grout is very porous and is rarely sealed. The customer had tried all sorts of cleaning products and spent a lot of time trying to get the grout clean with very little outcome and found it to be a time-consuming ongoing task which she didn’t have time for.
The grout was cleaned with our specialised cleaning products and equipment then our Colourseal product was applied to the grout resulting in a “as new” looking tiled floor and providing a highly water and stain resistant grout surface making ongoing maintenance much easier for the customer.
Testimonials
Darryl Pocklington has once again done an excellent job replacing the silicon in the base of one of our showers, cleaning tiles and the grout on the floor of the bathroom as well as cleaning glass shower doors in both showers.
Darryl initially cleaned grout on the floors of the kitchen and bathroom of one of our rental properties pre-earthquake. Since then we have used him many times including the re-grouting of tiles in our swimming pool post earthquake. I cannot speak too highly of his skills and professionalism and would recommend him to anyone for his work.Jann Layne
Superb service from Darryl Pocklington again. It has been a few years and I'd forgotten how easy it is to work with a tradesperson who offers excellent technical skill, is organised and has great communication as standard.
Daryl regrouted and sealed a shower and cleaned up another one for us. He has an excellent work ethic, works in a logical, tidy and efficient way giving you a lot of confidence in his workmanship, it really is a no-brainer to call this man. You won't be disappointed.Deidre Fraser
‘Darryl created a beautiful room with the new black epoxy grouting on the cream tiles. It was so much better than I could have ever expected. I am 82 and so it was important to have somebody who listened to my my requirements. Darryl was a pleasure to have around. A kind good man.’

Recently Darryl overhauled my tired old shower floor. The grout between the tiles was cracked and the original sealant had never been properly done and had mainly disappeared. Water was leaking through to the hallway carpet. What a difference the new improved grouting and sealant has made. The tiles in the shower are sparkling, the rest of the grouting on the bathroom floor tiles has been cleaned up and even the chromeware in the shower is gleaming. And no more leaks through to the carpet.
Darryl did a great job and I am a very happy customer. Highly recommend.Kay Snee
Darryl from GroutPro Christchurch re grouted all the floor in our large walk in shower, the grout went from dark and worn out to sparkling white, it looks like it’s brand new again. Very professional, very good value, and I would have no hesitation to recommending Darryl his attitude and workmanship is top notch. I didn’t realise that when builders build new houses a type of epoxy grout should always be used which has to be specified and not just wall tile grout put on the floor as this just doesn’t last. Darryl has used the proper epoxy grout now so I am sure it will be great to look at for many years to come. He was also very informative on keeping it looking perfect.
Don’t go past Darryl for your grout needs he’s SIMPLY THE BEST!Kaye Lysaght
