Regrouting for homes and businesses in Fair Oak
Across Fair Oak, we regrout tiled showers, bathrooms and kitchens. Out comes the old grout, the joints are cleaned and new grout goes in, finished with new silicone at the edges. If you have grout stained black or orange that won’t clean and grout that’s cracking and breaking up, we can help, on tiled floors, bathroom floors and shower walls alike.
Around Fair Oak, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

What affects the cost of regrouting
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- How much there is to do
- How many areas need sealing
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
What we need to know
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- The type of property
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
For regrouting in Fair Oak, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we’ll agree the price before any work begins.
What the job involves on each surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Grout by the basin and bath tends to mark first. We can regroute just those areas or the whole wall.
Shower walls
The grout in a shower takes the brunt of the water. We rake it out and regrout, and reseal the corners.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Fair Oak
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Paul, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Schools such as Ashford Hill Primary School are buildings too, and 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.

When to call us in Fair Oak
Hard water and soap leave a film on grout and stick to it. The grout beneath can stain and weaken, which is when replacing it makes sense.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Shower grout that has worn away
Letting a property close to Thatcham station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
Questions to ask before booking

What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like Fair Oak 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.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Fair Oak
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.
DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. 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. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Your questions about regrouting in Fair Oak
Do you cover Fair Oak for regrouting?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Fair Oak is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Will you come out to Fair Oak?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is it messy?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?
Yes. It’s the ideal time to change it. Mention the colour you have in mind when you phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Fair Oak and the rest of West Berkshire, along with the rest of our area.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
