About our regrouting in Crawley
A bathroom with good tiles can still look worn if the grout has gone. With regrouting, the tiles stay and only the grout is renewed, so nothing is ripped out. We work on wet rooms, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom wall tiles, and people most often call us about shower grout that has worn away and grout that makes sound tiles look old.
For a small place like Crawley, 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.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

Common questions in Crawley
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Crawley?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Finstock station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes, plenty of people choose to. A darker grout hides marks better, while lighter grout brightens a room.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
How long does the job take?
That depends on the amount of work, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. We’ll tell you when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
How the job changes by surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Whole bathroom walls can be regrouted in one visit or more, depending on size. It’s a good time to change the grout colour.
Shower walls
Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.
How the visit works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. For a village or hamlet like Crawley, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Bathrooms and kitchens in Crawley
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Crawley. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. 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 St John the Evangelist, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Schools such as Hailey Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and 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.
Crawley is about 1 mile north-west of Witney, in Oxfordshire. Homes, rented property, offices and hotels in Crawley is covered for regrouting. The work is guaranteed for a year.

What else we do in Crawley
What happens if it’s left?
Regrouting won’t help where tiles have come away. We point that out first, so you can decide what to do. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. In a small place like Crawley, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
Why us?
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
- Rated 4.9 stars on Google
- Arbo and Everbuild products
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it can harden properly. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and let the room air.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. By then, new grout alone isn’t enough, so it’s worth acting early.
What affects the quote in Crawley
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The amount of work
- How easy the joints are to reach
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Common problems we fix in Crawley
Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks as the bath or tray moves. Those joints should be silicone, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
For landlords with property near Finstock station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
Questions to ask before booking

- Whether VAT is included
- What preparation is included
