Empshott Regrouting
Professional regrouting in and around Empshott, with old sealant always removed completely.
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Grout washed out of a shower
Different surfaces, different methods
Shower walls
Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.
Kitchen splashbacks
We can regroute a splashback with the kitchen left in place. The worktop edge is finished with silicone.
How we handle regrouting in Empshott
Most regrouting jobs include resealing too. Grout belongs between tiles, but internal corners and edges flex, so they’re sealed with silicone rather than grout. Doing both at once leaves the whole area sound. Typical jobs include splashback grout that has darkened and gaps where the shower grout has gone, on tiled floors, wet rooms and shower walls.
In a village or hamlet like Empshott, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

Regrouting in Empshott: local notes
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.

What we do, step by step
We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Somewhere as small as Empshott, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Don’t ignore a tile that feels loose
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
Wipe the tiles down after a shower stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Ventilate the room well so the grout dries between uses.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. Once that happens, regrouting will not fix it, so it’s worth acting early.
Your questions about regrouting in Empshott
Do you cover Empshott for regrouting?
Yes, Empshott is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is Empshott within the area you cover?
Yes, Empshott is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured for every job we do.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
Yes, in most cases. Fresh grout next to old, mouldy silicone would look odd and wouldn’t keep water out.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes, plenty of people choose to. A darker grout hides marks better and lighter grout gives a fresher look.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Empshott.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Common problems we fix in Empshott
Grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble and showers that get daily use suffer most.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
In the older streets around Church of the Holy Rood, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before we start. It won’t solve:
- A leaking shower valve or waste
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
