How we handle regrouting in Hooe Common
Grout is the filler between your tiles, and sealant is what goes along the bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water can get in behind the tiles. We rake it out and replace it and renew the silicone at the edges. If you have corners filled with grout instead of silicone and discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Hooe Common, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t ignore a tile that feels loose
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout
We’ll tell you when the area can be used again. Please follow it, and go gently on the grout at first.
Grout that’s washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.
Regrouting in Hooe Common: local notes
Hooe Common is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, 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.
In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Mary, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. If you look after a building such as Ninfield Church of England Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a small place like Hooe Common, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
- Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.
How to prepare
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
Your questions about regrouting in Hooe Common
Is Hooe Common within the area you cover?

Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. As well as homeowners, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Generally, yes. The corners and edges should be silicone and doing both at once leaves everything sound.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. We can talk about working times when we quote.
How long does regrouting take?
Typically it takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Do you need regrouting in Hooe Common?
Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks because those joints flex. Those joints should be silicone, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
For landlords with property near Cooden Beach station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is chosen
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- How much experience the applicator has
- What happens if the job turns out different
Different surfaces, different methods
Wet rooms
Wet rooms have water across the floor, so good grout is important. We check the tiles first.
Shower walls
Shower walls are the most common area we regrout. Gaps here let water get behind the tiling.
