How we handle regrouting in Compton
We regroute showers, bathroom walls and floors, splashbacks and wet rooms. It can be a full room, others just the shower. Either way, tiled areas in Compton are handled the same careful way. Typical jobs include grout in a colour the owner wants to change and floor grout that won’t come clean, across wet rooms, shower walls and bathroom floors.
In a village or hamlet like Compton, 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.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What regrouting looks like in Compton
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale 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 Church of All Saints, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Letting a property close to Shawford station? Then clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. If you look after a building such as Compton All Saints Church of England Primary 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.

Advice
Compton: your questions answered
I let a flat near Shawford station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Is Compton in your area for regrouting?
Yes, Compton is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
How long should I wait before showering?
It varies with the products and the room. We will give you a time to follow at the end of the visit.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
We seal corners with silicone. They flex and grout cannot take that movement.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Most of the time, yes. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so we renew both and it’s all in the quote.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
For landlords and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can go on one quote.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
What the job involves on each surface
Shower walls
Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.
Wet rooms
Both the grout and the silicone in a wet room matter. We replace the grout and reseal the edges.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Keep the fan on after showering
A squeegee or cloth over the tiles after use keeps water off the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window so the grout dries between uses.
If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.
When something else is needed
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Wet rooms
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Bathroom floors
- Tiled floors
- Shower walls

What happens if it’s left?
Cracked grout lets water behind the tiles. Left alone, that water can loosen tiles or damage the wall, and then you are looking at retiling. Sorting it early keeps the job simple. Around Compton, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
What you get with us
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- Full insurance on every job
- Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
