Regrouting in Northease, East Sussex
Raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors for householders, landlords and businesses in Northease. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Northease
We take the old grout out to a consistent depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. The joints are then vacuumed, regrouted and cleaned off, with silicone renewed in the corners. We work on bathroom floors, wet rooms and kitchen splashbacks, and common reasons people get in touch are grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and crumbling grout between the tiles.
In a village or hamlet like Northease, 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.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Northease questions
I let a flat near Southease station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is Northease within the area you cover?
Yes, Northease is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few photos.
How long does the job take?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Yes, in most cases. Fresh grout next to old, mouldy silicone would look odd and wouldn’t keep water out.
Leave it or put it right?
Cracked grout lets water behind the tiles. Left alone, that water can loosen tiles or damage the wall, and then you are looking at retiling. Sorting it early keeps the job simple. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Northease, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Common reasons people contact us include:
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
Letting a property close to Southease station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- What preparation is included
- Which colour the sealant will be
- How long to leave it before use
Bathrooms and kitchens in Northease
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.
Managing a site like Priory School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. If you live in an older home near St Peter's Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Rinse the tiles after showering
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it can harden properly. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and keep the room ventilated.
Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Somewhere like Northease 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.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
- We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
