Lewes questions

Do you take on hotel work around Lewes?

Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.

Do you cover Lewes for regrouting?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Lewes is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.

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.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Should corners be grouted or sealed?

Corners get silicone, not grout. They flex, and grout there cracks.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We are fully insured.

Is it messy?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?

Yes, plenty of people choose to. A darker grout hides marks better, while lighter grout brightens a room.

How we handle regrouting in Lewes

Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water has a way in behind the tiling. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in, then reseal the corners and edges. We work on wet rooms, tiled floors and shower walls, and the jobs we see most are grout in corners that has cracked and grout that’s cracking and breaking up.

Most bathrooms in a town like Lewes are in family homes, used every day, where sealant and grout take a lot of daily wear. The usual signs are mould in the bead, gaps by the sink and grout that’s cracked or stained.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

What happens on the day

On the day, we start by going over the job with you. We protect the surfaces around the joints before work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Parking in a town like Lewes is normally straightforward, but tell us if there’s a driveway or any restrictions, and mention if the work is upstairs, in a flat or high on the outside.

  1. First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
  2. We remove the old grout carefully.
  3. Dust is cleared from every joint.
  4. The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
  5. We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

How to prepare

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Move anything stored near the joints

Why deal with it now?

Regrouting keeps the tiles you already have. Retiling means stripping the walls, making good and choosing new tiles, and the room is out of use for longer. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. In Lewes, as anywhere, most leaks start as a small gap in a joint, and they’re far easier to fix early.

Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Why us?

  • Every job guaranteed for a year
  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
  • Arbo and Everbuild products
  • Full insurance on every job

Take a look at what affects the cost or what customers say.

Aftercare tips

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Check the corner silicone every few months
  • Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
  • Have loose tiles looked at early
  • Rinse the tiles after showering

Before we leave, you’ll know when the shower can be used. Please follow it, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.

Fixing grout early is a small job. Left, the same problem can let water through, so get it looked at when you notice it.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

If you manage several properties in or around Lewes, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and photos by email help.

What regrouting looks like in Lewes

Lewes has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Schools such as Lewes Old Grammar School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Letting a property close to Lewes station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

Do you need regrouting in Lewes?

Some grout fails because it was mixed or laid badly. Grout that was too wet, not packed in or cleaned off too hard can wash out within a few years.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Cracked grout along the bath or tray
  • Gaps where the shower grout has gone
  • Old grout in a dated colour
  • Grout that is cracking and breaking up

If you live in an older home near Church of St John sub Castro, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Questions to ask before booking

  • The length of the guarantee
  • What preparation is included
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it

How to choose a mastic man

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
