FAQs for Ashey
I let a flat near Smallbrook Junction station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you cover Ashey for regrouting?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Ashey is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes, regrouting is the time to do it. Mention the colour you have in mind when you ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.
How long should I wait before showering?
It varies with the products and the room. We will tell you exactly how long when the job is done.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes. A lot of our jobs are only the shower, or the area where the grout has gone.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location, with pictures by email if possible. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
Silicone. Grout belongs between the tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.
How we handle regrouting in Ashey
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Just mention the colour you’d like when you phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. Typical jobs include shower grout that has worn away and grout stained black or orange that won’t clean, across bathroom floors, bathroom wall tiles and wet rooms.
In a village or hamlet like Ashey, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee.

Why it’s worth doing now in Ashey
If tiles are loose, regrouting alone is not the answer. We’ll tell you before we start, so you can decide what to do. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. Around Ashey, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

The process
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room.

- We remove the old grout carefully.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.

What we are called out for in Ashey
A poor original job is a common cause. Grout that was too wet, not packed in or cleaned off too hard can wash out within a few years.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
If you let a flat or house near Smallbrook Junction station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

- Whether they’re fully insured
Surface by surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Walls outside the shower get less water but grout there still discolours. New grout freshens them up.
Bathroom floors
If floor grout keeps cracking, the floor may be moving. We look for loose tiles first.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
Check the corner silicone now and then. It’s the part that moves, so the sealant there will need renewing in time.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. At this point it’s a simple regrout while the tiles are still sound.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Ashey, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and photos by email help.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Cracked or broken tiles
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal

Regrouting around Ashey
Ashey 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.
If you look after a building such as Ryde Academy, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
