Regrouting in Emery Down, done properly
We regroute showers, bathroom walls and floors, splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, others just the shower. Either way, tiled areas in Emery Down are handled the same careful way. Common call-outs are for grout washed out of a shower and old grout in a dated colour, across wet rooms, bathroom wall tiles and kitchen splashbacks.
Somewhere as small as Emery Down, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
Check the corner silicone now and then. It’s the part that moves, so the sealant there will need renewing in time.
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 Emery Down: local notes
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings. Emery Down has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
Managing a site like St Michael and All Angels CofE Infant School? Then 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. Rented homes near Ashurst New Forest station change hands often, and clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Why deal with it now?
With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling means stripping the walls, making good and choosing new tiles, and often a few days without a shower. If the tiles are sound, regrouting is the simpler fix. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Emery Down, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Landlord and commercial work in Emery Down

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll quote.
Different surfaces, different methods
Bathroom wall tiles
We can regroute all the walls in a bathroom, depending on size. It’s a good time to change the grout colour.
Kitchen splashbacks
Grout behind the hob and sink works hard. We regroute and reseal the worktop joint.
The process
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. For a village or hamlet like Emery Down, 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.
- 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.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work

Related advice
Your questions about regrouting in Emery Down
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Emery Down?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Do you cover smaller places like Emery Down?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
We seal corners with silicone. They flex, and grout there cracks.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure your landlord agrees.
When can I use the shower again?
Before we leave, we will tell you how long to wait. The grout and sealant both need to cure before they get wet.
What we are called out for in Emery Down
Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks as the bath or tray moves. They need flexible sealant, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Floor grout that will not come clean
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
If you live in an older home near Christ Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
What your quote should include
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What guarantee comes with the work
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
