About our regrouting in East Cowes
Our applicators rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. After vacuuming, new grout goes in and the tiles are wiped clean, and the corners get fresh silicone. We work on wet rooms, kitchen splashbacks and shower walls, and the jobs we see most are floor grout that has worn and darkened and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease.
In a smaller place like East Cowes, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, from older cottages to newer builds. Bathrooms and kitchens here get the same daily wear as anywhere, and the sealant and grout show it first.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Landlord and commercial work in East Cowes
For anyone letting property in or around East Cowes, several properties can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and photos by email help.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
How it works
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The work normally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, depending on how much there is to do. Parking around East Cowes is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- 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
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any tricky access

Regrouting in East Cowes: local notes
East Cowes is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around East Cowes. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
For an older house near a landmark such as St James's Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Managing a site like Isle of Wight Studio School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Questions from East Cowes
Do you work in hotels near East Cowes?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
Do you cover smaller places like East Cowes?
Yes, East Cowes is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Where do you work from?
We are based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will regrouting fix loose tiles?
New grout can’t hold loose tiles in place. We flag any loose or hollow tiles before starting so you know where you stand.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
Wipe the tiles down after a shower stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window to help it dry out.
Grout that is washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.
How the job changes by surface
Wet rooms
Wet rooms have water across the floor, so good grout is important. We check for loose tiles before starting.
Kitchen splashbacks
Splashback grout picks up grease and cooking stains. Stained grout is best replaced.
When something else is needed
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
- Cracked or broken tiles
- A leaking shower valve or waste
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
