About our regrouting in Cold Ash
A grout colour change can freshen a room without retiling. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote. We are often asked to deal with grout that’s cracking and breaking up and floor grout that has worn and darkened, across tiled floors, bathroom wall tiles and kitchen splashbacks.
Around Cold Ash, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Berkshire.

Regrouting around Cold Ash
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.
For an older house near a landmark such as St. Mark's Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Cold Ash St Mark's C.E. School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Cold Ash is about 2 miles north of Thatcham, in West Berkshire. We provide regrouting to homes and businesses in Cold Ash and nearby. 155 places in West Berkshire are on our list, from the larger towns to small villages. We also work in Reading, around 13 miles away.

Landlord and commercial work in Cold Ash
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
How we quote for regrouting
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- Access and height
- The number and length of the joints
- The type of sealant required
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts.
Helping us quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- If someone has resealed it before
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
What we do, step by step
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Somewhere like Cold Ash needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
How to get a quote
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Simply call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and describe the job and send photos if you have them.

When it isn’t the sealant
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- Tiles that are chipped or split
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What the job involves on each surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Whole bathroom walls can be regrouted in one visit or more, depending on the area. You can change the colour at the same time.
Corners and edges
Internal corners move, so we seal them rather than grout them.
Why deal with it now?
It’s tempting to fill a few cracks yourself, 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 Cold Ash, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What you get with us
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- Old sealant always removed completely
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- One-year guarantee on every job

Is Cold Ash within the area you cover?
Yes. Cold Ash is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is resealing included with regrouting?

What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes. With the old grout removed, the new colour fills the whole joint rather than sitting on top.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
What guarantee comes with the work?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee, and we are fully insured.
Common problems we fix in Cold Ash
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down over time, until the joints are rough and low.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Old grout in a dated colour
Letting a property close to Thatcham station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
