How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
- Have loose tiles looked at early
Before we leave, you will know when the shower can be used. Please follow it, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. At this point it’s a simple regrout, before the joints open up.
Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
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.
What we’re called out for in Glympton
When tiles or the wall behind them move, the grout cracks. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, which is why we check the tiles first.
The most common problems we see are:
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
Homes close to Church of St Mary include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Why it’s worth doing now in Glympton
Regrouting keeps the tiles you already have. Retiling means stripping the walls, making good and choosing new tiles, and often a few days without a shower. If the tiles are sound, regrouting is the simpler fix. Older cottages and farmhouses around Glympton can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts.

Regrouting around Glympton
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you let a flat or house near Tackley station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Glympton questions
Is Glympton within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Tackley station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
When can I use the shower again?
We give you a time before we leave. The wait depends on the products and conditions so please stick to it.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Is the work guaranteed?
Our one-year guarantee applies to all our work, and we are fully insured.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Yes, in most cases. New grout beside old sealant wouldn’t look right and wouldn’t keep water out.
How we quote for regrouting
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether the work is at height
- The number of rooms or windows
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before work begins.
Helping us quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Where the property is
- How we’d reach the joints
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- What’s wrong with the joints now
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.

What happens on the day
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Somewhere like Glympton needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided 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.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
Before we arrive
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Tell us if parking is tricky
