Regrouting in Windmill Hill, East Sussex

- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
About our regrouting in Windmill Hill
We take the old grout out to a consistent depth, without damaging the edges of the tiles. After vacuuming, new grout goes in and the tiles are wiped clean, and the corners get fresh silicone. We work on bathroom floors, bathroom wall tiles and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are corners filled with grout instead of silicone and grout stained black or orange that won’t clean.
Around Windmill Hill, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What affects the quote in Windmill Hill
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The number and length of the joints
- Access and height
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Where the property is

Can I do it myself?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
What happens if it’s left?
Regrouting will not help where tiles have come away. We will tell you before any work starts, so you can decide what to do. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. Around Windmill Hill, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll talk you through it.

Common problems we fix in Windmill Hill
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.
The most common problems we see are:
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Grout in corners that has cracked
If you let a flat or house near Normans Bay station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
Before booking anyone
- Whether VAT is included
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
A squeegee or cloth over the tiles after use keeps water off the grout. Ventilate the room well to help it dry out.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
Regrouting in Windmill Hill: local notes
Windmill Hill has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting 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.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Herstmonceux Church of England Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Your questions about regrouting in Windmill Hill
Do you work for landlords with property near Normans Bay station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover smaller places like Windmill Hill?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you regrout just the shower?
Yes, that is common. Shower grout tends to go before the rest, so it’s often the only area that needs doing.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.

The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, depending on how much there is to do. Somewhere like Windmill Hill needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We check the tiles are sound and flag 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.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
