We regroute showers, bathroom walls and floors, splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, others just the shower. Either way, tiled areas in Hawkenbury are handled the same careful way. If you have cracked grout along the bath or tray and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Hawkenbury, 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.

Your questions about regrouting in Hawkenbury
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Staplehurst station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover Hawkenbury for regrouting?
Yes, Hawkenbury is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
What should I tell you?
Tell us what needs doing and where, plus photos if you have them. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
When can I use the shower again?
It varies with the products and the room. We’ll give you a time to follow when the job is done.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Yes, in most cases. New grout beside old sealant wouldn’t look right and could still leak.

How we quote for regrouting
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How much there is to do
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The product the joint needs
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Helping us quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- If someone has resealed it before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Where the property is
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Common problems we fix in Hawkenbury
Most grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble and showers that get daily use suffer most.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Shower grout that has worn away
Around Hawkenbury, as everywhere, regrouting is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Questions to ask before you book
- How much experience the applicator has
- The length of the guarantee
- What insurance they hold
- Whether VAT is included

Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchen splashbacks
We can regroute a splashback with the kitchen left in place. The worktop edge is finished with silicone.
Bathroom floors
If floor grout keeps cracking, the floor may be moving. We look for loose tiles first.
Should I try it myself first?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
