About our regrouting in Hillway
We work across Hillway, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, and we finish by resealing the edges. Typical jobs include kitchen splashback grout stained by grease and grout that’s cracking and breaking up, on bathroom wall tiles, shower walls and tiled floors.
Homes around Hillway are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Why it’s worth doing now in Hillway
Patching a few joints can look like a quick win, but the patches often do not match, and the old grout keeps failing around them. Doing the full area gives you one colour and sound joints throughout. Older cottages and farmhouses around Hillway can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before any work starts.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.
Also in Hillway
Surface by surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Grout by the basin and bath tends to mark first. We can regroute just those areas or the whole wall.
Shower walls
Showers put more water on grout than anywhere else. We replace it, and reseal the corners.
What affects the cost of regrouting
You’ll get a clear quote before work begins. It takes into account:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Whether the work is at height
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Mould in or behind the old joints
The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, let us know:
- If someone has resealed it before
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any access issues, like height or stairs

When to call us in Hillway
Most grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. 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:
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
Managing a site like Bembridge Church of England Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- What happens if the job turns out different
- How the colour is chosen
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. Corners flex, so the sealant there will need renewing in time, long before the grout does.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. At this point it’s a simple regrout, before the joints open up.
Common questions in Hillway
I let a flat near Brading station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Can you do regrouting in Hillway?
Yes, Hillway is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
When can I use the shower again?
We give you a time before we leave. The wait depends on the products and conditions, so follow the time we give you.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
How long does the job take?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
In most cases, yes. Corners and edges need flexible silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.
What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room in most cases. For a village or hamlet like Hillway, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Clear the area around the work

Advice
Hillway homes and their sealant
Hillway is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you live in an older home near Bembridge Methodist Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you let a flat or house near Brading station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
