Horney Common Regrouting
Our applicators work in Horney Common on raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and a one-year guarantee.
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
When something else is needed
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Kitchen splashbacks

Regrouting for homes and businesses in Horney Common
If you’ve been scrubbing grout that will not come clean, the discolouration has normally soaked into the grout. New grout is the fix that lasts, and it’s a chance to change the colour too. If you have discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Horney Common, 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.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Why deal with it now?
With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling is a much bigger job: stripping, making good, new tiles and new grout, and often a few days without a shower. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. Older cottages and farmhouses around Horney Common can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
Use a gentle cleaner on the grout with a soft brush. Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers, as they can break grout down.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work generally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Somewhere like Horney Common needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Common questions in Horney Common
Is Horney Common in your area for regrouting?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Horney Common is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
I let a flat near Buxted station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Horney Common and the rest of East Sussex, along with the rest of our area.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Usually, yes. The corners and edges should be silicone and doing both at once leaves everything sound.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee, and we’re fully insured.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?
If tiles are loose, something behind them has usually failed. Regrouting alone is not the answer and we’ll say so before going ahead.
How the job changes by surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Tiles away from the shower stay drier but still stain and crack. New grout freshens them up.
Bathroom floors
Grout on a floor is walked on as well as wetted. It gets worn and dirty.
Horney Common homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For an older house near a landmark such as Christ Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Letting a property close to Buxted station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
