Surface by surface
Wet rooms
Wet rooms have water across the floor, so good grout is important. We check the tiles first.
Shower walls
A shower wall is soaked daily, so grout there works hardest. It’s often the first place grout washes out.
About our regrouting in Chawton
We work across Chawton, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, finished with new silicone at the edges. We work on wet rooms, tiled floors and kitchen splashbacks, and people most often call us about grout in a colour the owner wants to change and good tiles let down by tired grout.
Around Chawton, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Chawton and everywhere else we cover.

Regrouting around Chawton
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. Chawton has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
Schools such as Chawton Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and 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 Church of St Nicholas, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Chawton: your questions answered
Do you work in hotels near Chawton?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
I let a flat near Alton station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Can you change the grout colour?
It can. With the old grout removed, the new colour fills the whole joint rather than sitting on top.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Usually, yes. Corners and edges need flexible silicone and doing both at once leaves everything sound.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is there any odour?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.

Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Why deal with it now?
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They do not fill cracks or stop water and stains often come back through. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Chawton, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- 12-month guarantee on every job
- We never seal over old sealant
- Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
Do you need regrouting in Chawton?
Soap scum and limescale build up on grout and stick to it. The grout beneath can stain and weaken, which is when replacing it makes sense.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
If you let a flat or house near Alton station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
Questions to ask before booking
- How long the guarantee is
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether they’re fully insured
Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Cracked or broken tiles
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. For a village or hamlet like Chawton, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Preparing for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it cures fully. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and keep the room ventilated.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. By then, new grout alone is not enough so early action pays.
