Surface by surface
Wet rooms
Wet rooms have water across the floor, so sound grout really matters. We check the tiles first.
Bathroom floors
Floor grout takes foot traffic as well as water. It wears and darkens over time.
Regrouting in Burghclere Common
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. You might go from white to grey or back again. Just mention the colour you’d like when you phone 0345 464 0079 or email us. Common call-outs are for grout in corners that has cracked and grout that’s cracking and breaking up, on bathroom floors, wet rooms and bathroom wall tiles.
Homes around Burghclere Common are mostly 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.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Signs you need regrouting in Burghclere Common
Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down over time, until the joints are rough and low.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
In the older streets around Church of the Ascension, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
Questions to ask before booking
- Are they insured?
- How much experience the applicator has
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Which colour the sealant will be
Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. It’s the part that moves, so the sealant there will need renewing in time.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. By then, new grout alone isn’t enough, so it’s worth acting early.
Questions from Burghclere Common
Will you come out to Burghclere Common?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
I let a flat near Newbury station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes, regrouting is the time to do it. Mention the colour you have in mind when you call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
How much does regrouting cost in Burghclere Common?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.
Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?
Regrouting won’t fix loose tiles. We flag any loose or hollow tiles before starting so you know where you stand.
How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?
Before we leave, we will tell you how long to wait. Both the grout and the silicone need time to cure before they get wet.
How long does regrouting take?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. We’ll tell you when we quote.
Regrouting around Burghclere Common
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Rented homes near Newbury station change hands often, and clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. If you look after a building such as The Clere School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

The process
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a small place like Burghclere Common, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.

Related advice
What happens if it’s left?
If tiles are loose, regrouting alone isn’t the answer. We point that out first, 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 Burghclere Common, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
