Regrouting in Baulking
If you’ve been scrubbing grout that will not come clean, the stain is often in the grout itself. Replacing it is the lasting answer and you can pick a different colour while you are at it. We work on wet rooms, bathroom floors and tiled floors, and the jobs we see most are shower grout that has worn away and stained grout that cleaning won’t shift.
Somewhere as small as Baulking, 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 our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

What happens if it’s left?
Regrouting keeps the tiles you already have. Retiling is a much bigger job: stripping, making good, new tiles and new grout, and the room is out of use for longer. If the tiles are sound, regrouting is the simpler fix. In a small place like Baulking, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts.
Why Baulking customers choose us
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
- Every job guaranteed for a year
Can I do it myself?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Baulking, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by checking the tiles for 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.
- New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
- We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Tell us about any water getting in

Regrouting in Baulking: local notes
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale 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 Church of St Nicholas, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Around Baulking, as everywhere, regrouting is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Baulking questions
Is there a guarantee on regrouting in Baulking?
All our work, in Baulking and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Can you do regrouting in Baulking?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Baulking is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
When can I use the shower again?
We give you a time before we leave. The wait depends on the products and conditions, so follow the time we give you.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Do you reseal at the same time?
We usually do. New grout beside old sealant wouldn’t look right and could still leak.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
We seal corners with silicone. They flex, and grout there cracks.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- Tiles that are chipped or split
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What affects the cost of regrouting
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- The size of the job
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Any mould that needs treating
- Working hours on commercial sites
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- If someone has resealed it before
- How we’d reach the joints
- The rough size of the job
- The address or postcode of the job
Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details.
Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Keep the fan on after showering
Have any tile that moves checked straight away. Movement will crack the new grout and open a path for water.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. Once that happens, regrouting won’t fix it, so it’s worth acting early.
