Regrouting in Compton, Surrey
Our applicators work in Compton on raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
We will tell you when the area can be used again. Please follow it, and go gently on the grout at first.
Grout that is washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Each shower drives water into the open joints and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.
Regrouting in Compton
Regrouting suits shower walls, bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, others just the shower. Either way, tiled areas in Compton are handled the same careful way. If you’re dealing with discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and grout that’s cracking and breaking up, we can put it right, on tiled floors, bathroom wall tiles and bathroom floors alike.
For a small place like Compton, regrouting is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Compton
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Rented homes near Farncombe station change hands often, and clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. Managing a site like Loseley Fields Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Compton, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchen splashbacks
Kitchen grout collects grease and food splashes. Stained grout is best replaced.
Corners and edges
The joint between tiles and a bath, tray or worktop gets silicone. Grout in that joint wouldn’t last.
What sealant work can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- A leaking shower valve or waste
- Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Bathroom floors
- Tiled floors
- Wet rooms
- Shower walls
- Bathroom wall tiles
The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating. Expect the work to take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Somewhere like Compton needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Related advice
Compton: your questions answered
I let a flat near Farncombe station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you cover Compton 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 will give you a clear quote.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Do you grout the corners?
Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in a moving joint soon cracks.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
How do I get a quote for regrouting in Compton?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Do you need regrouting in Compton?
A poor original job is a common cause. Grout that was too wet, not packed in or cleaned off too hard can wash out within a few years.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Floor grout that will not come clean
- Grout washed out of a shower
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Nicholas, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
