Ellingham Regrouting
Raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors for homes and businesses in Ellingham and across Hampshire. ARBOMaster approved applicators, fully insured, with a one-year guarantee.
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Ellingham
Most regrouting jobs include resealing too. Grout belongs between tiles, but internal corners and edges flex, so they need flexible silicone instead. Renewing both together means nothing is left half-done. We work on shower walls, kitchen splashbacks and tiled floors, and people most often call us about grout that makes sound tiles look old and stained grout that cleaning won’t shift.
Somewhere as small as Ellingham, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Different surfaces, different methods
Bathroom wall tiles
Whole bathroom walls can be regrouted in one visit or more, depending on the area. You can change the colour at the same time.
Shower walls
Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Gaps here let water get behind the tiling.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Somewhere like Ellingham needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Questions from Ellingham
Is regrouting in Ellingham guaranteed?
All our work, in Ellingham and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Is Ellingham in your area for regrouting?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Ellingham is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
Normally we do both. Grout fills tile gaps and sealant handles the moving joints, so we renew both and it’s all in the quote.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll explain our choice.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Can tenants book the work?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Leave it or put it right?
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They will not fill gaps or keep water out, and stains can show through again. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Ellingham, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Don’t ignore a tile that feels loose
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
Check the corner silicone now and then. Corners flex, so the sealant there will need renewing in time.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. Once that happens, regrouting won’t fix it so early action pays.
What we’re called out for in Ellingham
Soap scum and limescale build up on grout and stick to it. The grout beneath can stain and weaken, which is when replacing it makes sense.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ringwood School Academy, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Regrouting in Ellingham: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary and All Saints, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
