How we handle regrouting in Budlett's Common
A grout colour change can freshen a room without retiling. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Just mention the colour you’d like when you ring 0345 464 0079 or email us. We work on shower walls, tiled floors and bathroom floors, and people most often call us about grout washed out of a shower and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease.
In a village or hamlet like Budlett's Common, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

What we can’t put right

Bathrooms and kitchens in Budlett's Common
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Budlett's Common. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you look after a building such as Bonners CofE School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. If you live in an older home near Five Ash Down Independent Chapel, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

What we do, step by step
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room for a typical job. For a village or hamlet like Budlett's Common, 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.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
How to prepare
- Mention any tricky access
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us about any water getting in

Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
Have any tile that moves checked right away. A loose tile cracks the grout around it and lets water in.
Grout that is washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.
Why it’s worth doing now in Budlett's Common
Grout pens and paint-on colourants only cover the surface. They do not fill cracks or stop water, and stains can show through again. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. Older cottages and farmhouses around Budlett's Common can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
Why book with us
- We are fully insured
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- We leave the area clean and tidy

When to call us in Budlett's Common
Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down over time, leaving the joints sunken and rough.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Shower grout that has worn away
Rented homes near Uckfield station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
Questions to ask before you book
- How hidden problems are handled
- How much experience the applicator has
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- How long to leave it before use
Budlett's Common questions
Will you come out to Budlett's Common?
Yes, Budlett's Common is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Budlett's Common?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
Normally we do both. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so we renew both and it’s all in the quote.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?
We’ll tell you on the day. The wait depends on the products and conditions, so follow the time we give you.
What guarantee comes with the work?
Our one-year guarantee applies to all our work, and we’re fully insured.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes. It’s the ideal time to change it. Mention the colour you have in mind when you phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
