Bathrooms and kitchens in Freefolk
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary the Virgin, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. For landlords with property near Whitchurch (Hampshire) station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Regrouting in Freefolk
Regrouting suits shower walls, bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, or just the area that has failed. Either way, tiled areas in Freefolk are handled the same careful way. We work on wet rooms, shower walls and kitchen splashbacks, and common reasons people get in touch are grout that makes sound tiles look old and grout washed out of a shower.
Being in a small place like Freefolk makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

When to call us in Freefolk
When tiles or the wall behind them move, the grout cracks. Loose tiles, bouncy floors and timber walls can all do it, which is why we check the tiles first.
Look out for these signs:
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
Schools such as Testbourne Community School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
What to look for in a quote
- How long to leave it before use
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Whether VAT is included
- How much experience the applicator has
What happens on the day
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, and the area is left clean. For a village or hamlet like Freefolk, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- 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.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What affects the cost of regrouting
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- The number and length of the joints
- How many areas need sealing
- The type of sealant required
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The address or postcode of the job
- Whether it’s a home or a business
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that’s easier. Describe what needs sealing and we will talk you through the work and send you a clear quote.
Why deal with it now?
Regrouting will not help where tiles have come away. We point that out first so you know what’s involved. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Freefolk, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before work begins.
What you get with us
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
- We never seal over old sealant

When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Cracked or broken tiles
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Tiled floors
- Kitchen splashbacks

Different surfaces, different methods
Corners and edges
Edges are resealed while we’re there, so the whole area is finished together.
Shower walls
The grout in a shower takes the brunt of the water. We rake it out and regrout, and reseal the corners.
