Regrouting in Crosbost
Problem with your tiled areas in Crosbost? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

What affects the cost of regrouting
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The product the joint needs
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How many areas need sealing
Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

Regrouting in Crosbost, done properly
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 Crosbost are handled the same careful way. If you have floor grout that has worn and darkened and grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned, we can put it right, on wet rooms, tiled floors and bathroom wall tiles alike.
In and around a place like Crosbost, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are usually the first signs.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Surface by surface
Wet rooms
New grout in a wet room keeps the surface sound. It can’t fix waterproofing below the tiles.
Shower walls
Shower walls get wet every day, so grout there works hardest. It’s often the first place grout washes out.
Should I try it myself first?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Crosbost questions
Is there a guarantee on regrouting in Crosbost?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Will you come out to Crosbost?
Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, islands included, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?
Loose or hollow tiles are a sign of a problem behind them. Regrouting alone isn’t the answer, and we will tell you before any work starts.
Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Silicone. Grout is for the joints between tiles and moving joints need sealant.
How long does regrouting take?
Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
Most of the time, yes. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so we renew both and include it in your quote.
Signs you need regrouting in Crosbost
Soap scum and limescale build up on grout and stick to it. In time the grout under it darkens and breaks down, which is when replacing it makes sense.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Old grout in a dated colour
In and around Crosbost, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
What your quote should include
- How long to leave it before use
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- The length of the guarantee

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
Before we leave, you’ll know when the shower can be used. Stick to that time, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left for a few years, they can become a leak, so get it looked at when you notice it.
How it works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself usually takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, depending on the size of the job. Outside jobs in Crosbost need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.
