About our regrouting in Hastings Old Town
We work across Hastings Old Town, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. Out comes the old grout, the joints are cleaned and new grout goes in, finished with new silicone at the edges. We are often asked to deal with grout in a colour the owner wants to change and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease, on wet rooms, bathroom floors and bathroom wall tiles.
Around Hastings Old Town, you will mostly find houses and bungalows, some older and some much newer. Bathrooms and kitchens here get the same daily wear as anywhere, and the sealant and grout show it first.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Have loose tiles looked at early
Check the corner silicone now and then. Corners flex, so it’s generally the first thing to need attention.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left for a few years, they can become a leak so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
Surface by surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Splash areas around basins and baths stain first. We can regroute just those areas or the whole wall.
Wet rooms
Wet room grout and sealant need to be in good order. We renew both.
Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Tiles that are chipped or split
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- A leaking shower valve or waste
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

FAQs for Hastings Old Town
Do you work for landlords with property near Hastings station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is Hastings Old Town within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
We normally do. Fresh grout next to old, mouldy silicone would look odd and wouldn’t keep water out.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We are based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?
We can. We’ll look at the rest of the room too and let you know if more needs doing.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
What regrouting looks like in Hastings Old Town
Hastings Old Town 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. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Schools such as Ark Castledown Primary Academy are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Rented homes near Hastings station change hands often, and clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Common problems we fix in Hastings Old Town
Grout that was put in corners cracks because those joints flex. They need flexible sealant, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
The most common problems we see are:
- Stained grout that cleaning will not shift
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Floor grout that won’t come clean
In the older streets around Church of St Clement, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
