Regrouting in Brookstreet, done properly
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. We are often asked to deal with stained grout that cleaning won’t shift and floor grout that has worn and darkened, across tiled floors, shower walls and kitchen splashbacks.
Being in a small place like Brookstreet makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Leave it or put it right?
If tiles are loose, regrouting alone is not the answer. We’ll tell you before work begins, so you can decide what to do. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting is far less disruptive than retiling. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Brookstreet, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Signs you need regrouting in Brookstreet
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it over time, until the joints are rough and low.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary the Virgin, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Questions to ask before booking
- Is VAT in the price?
- How long the guarantee is
- What the cure time is
- Whether they’re fully insured
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
Have any tile that moves checked right away. Movement will crack the new grout and open a path for water.
Stains that will not clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward, before the joints open up.
What affects the cost of regrouting
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Access and height
- How many areas need sealing
- How much there is to do
- When we can work, for business premises
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll take it from there.
What the job involves on each surface
Kitchen splashbacks
Kitchen grout collects grease and food splashes. Once it’s stained, new grout is often the only fix.
Shower walls
Shower walls are the most common area we regrout. Gaps here let water get behind the tiling.
