Kidlington questions
Is Kidlington within the area you cover?
Yes, Kidlington is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work for landlords with property near Oxford Parkway station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
Yes, in most cases. Fresh grout next to old, mouldy silicone would look odd and wouldn’t keep water out.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. The old sealant always comes out first.
Can you regrout just the shower?
Yes. Many jobs are just the shower walls, or just the joints that have failed.
What does regrouting cost?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing and where.
Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?
Loose or hollow tiles are a sign of a problem behind them. Grout on its own won’t fix that and we’ll say so before going ahead.
What should I tell you?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
About our regrouting in Kidlington
We check the tiles before any grout comes out. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, because regrouting won’t fix what’s behind them. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. We work on shower walls, tiled floors and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are floor grout that has worn and darkened and discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles.
In a smaller place like Kidlington, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, from older cottages to newer builds. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Kidlington and everywhere else we cover.

Regrouting in Kidlington: local notes
Kidlington has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. 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, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Managing a site like St Thomas More Catholic Primary School? Then 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.
Kidlington is about 5 miles north-west of Oxford, in Oxfordshire. Anywhere in OX5, our applicators can take on regrouting. We cover 443 towns and villages across Oxfordshire, from the larger towns to small villages.

What sealant work cannot fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Bathroom floors
- Wet rooms
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Shower walls
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Tiled floors
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
If a tile starts to feel loose, get it looked at early. Movement will crack the new grout and open a path for water.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. By then, new grout alone is not enough so early action pays.
How it works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area for a typical job. For a job in Kidlington, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Preparing for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any tricky access

Different surfaces, different methods
Shower walls
A shower wall is soaked daily, so grout there works hardest. It’s often the first place grout washes out.
Wet rooms
Wet room grout and sealant need to be in good order. We renew both.

DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
When to call us in Kidlington
Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. Loose tiles, bouncy floors and timber walls can all do it, so we check the tiles before any work starts.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Grout washed out of a shower
For landlords with property near Oxford Parkway station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
What your quote should include
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- How hidden problems are handled
- Is VAT in the price?
