Regrouting in Cosham, Portsmouth
We cover Cosham for raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and a one-year guarantee.
- Stained grout that cleaning will not shift
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Shower grout that has worn away
Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Rinse the tiles after showering
Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. It’s the part that moves, so it’s normally the first thing to need attention.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
Regrouting in Cosham, done properly
We check the tiles before any grout comes out. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, because regrouting will not fix what’s behind them. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. If you have cracked grout along the bath or tray and gaps where the shower grout has gone, we can help.
Around Cosham, you’ll mostly find houses and bungalows, some older and some much newer. Bathrooms and kitchens here get the same daily wear as anywhere, and the sealant and grout show it first.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

FAQs for Cosham
Do you cover Cosham for regrouting?
Yes, Cosham 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.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Cosham station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Normally, yes. The corners and edges should be silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured for every job we do.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes, plenty of people choose to. A darker grout hides marks better and lighter grout gives a fresher look.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Do you grout the corners?
Silicone. Grout is for the joints between tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.
What happens on the day
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Parking around Cosham is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
- 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.
- New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.
How to prepare
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any tricky access
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Related advice
Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Leave it or put it right?
Once grout cracks, water can get behind the tiling. Leave it, and the adhesive or the wall behind can suffer, which turns a regrout into a retile. Dealing with it now keeps it small. In an older home around Cosham, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.

What regrouting looks like in Cosham
Cosham is within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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.
Letting a property close to Cosham station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. Schools such as Court Lane Junior Academy are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Common problems we fix in Cosham
Hard water and soap leave a film on grout that’s hard to shift. The grout beneath can stain and weaken, and at that point, new grout is the better answer.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Philip, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
