Regrouting for homes and businesses in Five Oaks
Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water can get in behind the tiles. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in, then reseal the corners and edges. We work on shower walls, bathroom floors and kitchen splashbacks, and the jobs we see most are dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor and crumbling grout between the tiles.
Around Five Oaks, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

How we quote for regrouting
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How easy the joints are to reach
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.
Helping us quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- Where the property is
- The type of property
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.
Your questions about regrouting in Five Oaks
Can you do regrouting in Five Oaks?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Five Oaks is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.
Do you work for landlords with property near Billingshurst station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
When can I use the shower again?
You’ll get a clear time from us before we go. Both the grout and the silicone need time to cure before the shower is used.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes. Many customers do. Darker grout can hide marks and lighter grout gives a fresher look.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and we will quote it together.
Do you grout the corners?
We use silicone in corners and along edges. Grout in a moving joint soon cracks.
How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t ignore a tile that feels loose
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
Wipe the tiles down after a shower keeps water off the grout. Ventilate the room well so the grout dries between uses.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. Once that happens, regrouting will not fix it, so it’s worth acting early.
Regrouting around Five Oaks
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 happens if it’s left?
New grout smeared over the old does not bond well. It sits thinly on top and soon flakes away, taking any repair with it. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. In a small place like Five Oaks, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.

How the visit works
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, including the tidy-up. For a village or hamlet like Five Oaks, the journey is planned in advance: 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

What sealant work can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
- Tiles that are chipped or split
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Common problems we fix in Five Oaks
Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, which is why we check the tiles first.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
Letting a property close to Billingshurst station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
What your quote should include

- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
