How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a small place like Garsington, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Getting ready for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

How we handle regrouting in Garsington
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. We rake it out and replace it and renew the silicone at the edges. If you have grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and grout in corners that has cracked, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
For a small place like Garsington, regrouting is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and let the room air.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.
How the job changes by surface
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the whole floor gets wet, so sound grout really matters. We check for loose tiles before starting.
Corners and edges
Where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop, the joint is sealed. Grout there would crack.

Regrouting in Garsington: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Homes close to Church of St Mary include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Letting a property close to Radley station? Then clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Why it’s worth doing now in Garsington
With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling is a much bigger job: stripping, making good, new tiles and new grout, and the room is out of use for longer. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. Around Garsington, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

When it isn’t the sealant
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- A leaking wet room membrane
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Do you need regrouting in Garsington?
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.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
If you look after a building such as Garsington Church of England Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
