Regrouting in Farthingloe, done properly
A bathroom with good tiles can still look worn if the grout has gone. With regrouting, the tiles stay and only the grout is renewed, so there’s no stripping out and no new tiles to choose. We work on shower walls, wet rooms and tiled floors, and the jobs we see most are corners filled with grout instead of silicone and grout washed out of a shower.
Somewhere as small as Farthingloe, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What the job involves on each surface
Shower walls
Showers put more water on grout than anywhere else. We replace it, and reseal the corners.
Wet rooms
Both the grout and the silicone in a wet room matter. We replace the grout and reseal the edges.
What affects the quote in Farthingloe
We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- The amount of work
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Access and height
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- The type of property
- The address or postcode of the job
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job.
Your questions about regrouting in Farthingloe
Do you work in hotels near Farthingloe?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
I let a flat near Dover Priory station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We’re a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
We use silicone in corners and along edges. Grout in those joints cracks as the building moves.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, plus pictures if you have them. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Cracked or broken tiles
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Shower walls
- Tiled floors
- Wet rooms
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Bathroom floors
What happens if it’s left?
Once grout cracks, water can get behind the tiling. Leave it, and the adhesive or the wall behind can suffer, and then you are looking at retiling. Sorting it early keeps the job simple. In a small place like Farthingloe, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.
Why us?
- 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
If a tile starts to feel loose, get it looked at early. A loose tile cracks the grout around it and lets water in.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. By then, new grout alone isn’t enough, so it’s worth acting early.
Regrouting in Farthingloe: local notes
Farthingloe is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Dover Priory station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. For an older house near a landmark such as Aycliffe Church Centre, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. If you look after a building such as Aycliffe Community Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
