Quotes for regrouting in Compton
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The amount of work
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- A few photos by email, if you can
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email pictures if that is easy.
Regrouting in Compton
Grout fills the gaps between tiles, and sealant is what goes along the bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water can get in behind the tiles. We rake it out and replace it, then reseal the corners and edges. We work on bathroom wall tiles, wet rooms and kitchen splashbacks, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked grout along the bath or tray and grout in a colour the owner wants to change.
For a small place like Compton, regrouting is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Compton as everywhere else we work.

Regrouting around Compton
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Homes close to Church of St Mary and St Nicholas include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Common problems we fix in Compton
When tiles or the wall behind them move, the grout cracks. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, which is why we check the tiles first.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Stained grout that cleaning will not shift
If you look after a building such as Compton C.E. Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
What your quote should include
- What guarantee comes with the work
- What happens if the job turns out different
- How long to leave it before use
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
Why deal with it now?
With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling means stripping the walls, making good and choosing new tiles, and the room is out of use for longer. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. 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.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

FAQs for Compton
Do you cover smaller places like Compton?
Yes, Compton is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you do regrouting in Compton?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Compton is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured.
What if some of my tiles are loose?
If tiles are loose, something behind them has usually failed. Grout on its own won’t fix that and we’ll say so before going ahead.
Do you work for letting agents?
Yes. As well as homeowners, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels in Compton.
How much does regrouting cost in Compton?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
When something else is needed
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
- Movement in a stud wall or floor
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Shower walls
- Bathroom floors
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Tiled floors
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
Check the corner silicone now and then. It’s the part that moves, so it’s usually the first thing to need attention.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. Once that happens, regrouting won’t fix it, so it’s worth acting early.
How it works
On the day, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before we start. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. For a village or hamlet like Compton, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
How to prepare
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
