About our regrouting in Boughton Lees
We take the old grout out to a consistent depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. After vacuuming, new grout goes in and the tiles are wiped clean, and the corners get fresh silicone. Typical jobs include cracked or crumbling grout lines and grout stained black or orange that won’t clean, on tiled floors, bathroom floors and shower walls.
Around Boughton Lees, 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: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Leave it or put it right?
Bleach can lighten stained grout for a while, but mould that has got into grout normally comes back. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. In a small place like Boughton Lees, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

What affects the cost of regrouting
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How many areas need sealing
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Whether the work is at height
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Helping us quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Roughly how big the job is
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
For a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the location and a short description of the problem. We will give you a clear price before any work starts.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
- Cracked or broken tiles
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Bathroom floors
- Wet rooms
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Shower walls
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Tiled floors
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works.
Common questions in Boughton Lees
Is Boughton Lees within the area you cover?
Yes, Boughton Lees is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Wye station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?
If tiles are loose, something behind them has normally failed. Regrouting alone isn’t the answer, and we will tell you before any work starts.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location, plus pictures if you have them. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
A squeegee or cloth over the tiles after use keeps water off the grout. Ventilate the room well so the grout dries between uses.
Cracked grout doesn’t stay cracked for long. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away, so regrouting early can save a retile.
Do you need regrouting in Boughton Lees?
Hard water and soap leave a film on grout that’s hard to shift. In time the grout under it darkens and breaks down, which is when replacing it makes sense.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Towers School and Sixth Form Centre, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Before you book anyone
- How the colour is chosen
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether they’re fully insured
- What preparation is included
How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Boughton Lees, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Related advice
Regrouting around Boughton Lees
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you let a flat or house near Wye station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. Homes close to Saint Christopher's Church include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
