Regrouting in Chelwood Common
Across Chelwood Common, 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 are often asked to deal with grout that makes sound tiles look old and cracked grout along the bath or tray, across bathroom floors, bathroom wall tiles and kitchen splashbacks.
Somewhere as small as Chelwood Common, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Surface by surface
Wet rooms
Wet rooms have water across the floor, so sound grout really matters. We check the tiles first.
Shower walls
Showers put more water on grout than anywhere else. We rake it out and regrout, and reseal the corners.

Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
When to call us in Chelwood Common
Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks as the bath or tray moves. Those joints should be silicone, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Splashback grout that has darkened
If you live in an older home near Chelwood Gate Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Advice
What sealant work can’t fix
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Chelwood Common
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you look after a building such as Danehill Church of England Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Chelwood Common: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Chelwood 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.
Can you do regrouting in Chelwood Common?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Chelwood Common is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Where are you based?
We are a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
How long should I wait before showering?
Before we leave, we’ll tell you how long to wait. The grout and sealant both need to cure before they get wet.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Yes, in most cases. Fresh grout next to old, mouldy silicone would look odd and wouldn’t keep water out.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Landlord and commercial work in Chelwood Common
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured for the work.
Leave it or put it right?
Patching a few joints can look like a quick win, but the patches often don’t match and the old grout carries on failing. Doing the full area gives you one colour and sound joints throughout. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Chelwood Common, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.
