Brunswick homes and their sealant
Brunswick is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around St Stephen's Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Rented homes near Brighton station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. If you look after a building such as St Mary Magdalen Catholic Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Brunswick is about 1 mile south-west of Brighton, in Brighton and Hove. Homes, rented property, offices and hotels in Brunswick can book us for regrouting, old or new, large or small. The work is guaranteed for a year. Across Brighton and Hove, we cover 30 places, Brunswick among them.

About our regrouting in Brunswick
Across Brunswick, we regrout tiled showers, bathrooms and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, and we finish by resealing the edges. We work on bathroom floors, bathroom wall tiles and tiled floors, and common reasons people get in touch are grout washed out of a shower and a grout colour that no longer suits the room.
Homes around Brunswick range from older cottages to more recent houses. Older homes can move a little with the seasons, which is hard on tired sealant and rigid grout.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

What sealant work can’t fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- A leaking shower valve or waste
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Shower walls
- Tiled floors
- Bathroom floors
Surface by surface
Corners and edges
Corners flex as the building moves, so they get silicone, not grout.
Bathroom floors
If floor grout keeps cracking, the floor may be moving. We look for loose tiles first.
Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
A squeegee or cloth over the tiles after use stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window so the grout dries between uses.
If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.

Why deal with it now?
Grout pens and paint-on colourants only cover the surface. They won’t fill gaps or keep water out, and stains can show through again. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. In a smaller place like Brunswick, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. For a job in Brunswick, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
How to prepare
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
Brunswick: your questions answered
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Brunswick?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
I let a flat near Brighton station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Do you guarantee regrouting?
You get our 12-month guarantee on every job. We are also fully insured.
What if some of my tiles are loose?
Loose or hollow tiles are a sign of a problem behind them. Regrouting alone is not the answer and we’ll say so before going ahead.
How long does regrouting take?
That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. We will tell you when we quote.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
What affects the quote in Brunswick
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- The size of the job
- When we can work, for business premises
- Whether the work is at height
- Which sealant suits the joint
The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- A few photos by email, if you can
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Where the property is
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
