When to call us in Lathbury
Grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble, especially in a shower that’s used every day.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Stained grout that cleaning won’t shift
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
If you look after a building such as Cedars Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
What your quote should include
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- How the colour is chosen
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
Regrouting in Lathbury, done properly
Before we start, the tiles are checked. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, since new grout cannot fix a problem underneath. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. Typical jobs include grout in a colour the owner wants to change and greasy, stained grout behind the hob, across bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and shower walls.
Homes around Lathbury are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Lathbury and across Milton Keynes.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Landlord and commercial work in Lathbury
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Regrouting around Lathbury
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Lathbury. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Rented homes near Wolverton station change hands often, and clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Different surfaces, different methods
Corners and edges
The joint between tiles and a bath, tray or worktop gets silicone. Grout in that joint wouldn’t last.
Bathroom wall tiles
We can regroute all the walls in a bathroom, depending on size. You can change the colour at the same time.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Check the corner silicone every few months
Clean the grout with a mild bathroom cleaner with a soft brush. Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers, as they can break grout down.
Grout that’s washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.
Lathbury: your questions answered
Will you come out to Lathbury?
Yes. Lathbury is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
I let a flat near Wolverton station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?
Yes. We’ll check the other tiled areas as well and tell you if anything else needs attention.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
What if some of my tiles are loose?
Loose or hollow tiles are a sign of a problem behind them. Regrouting alone isn’t the answer, and we’ll tell you before any work starts.
Where do you work from?
We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Leave it or put it right?
Cracked grout lets water behind the tiles. Leave it, and the adhesive or the wall behind can suffer, which turns a regrout into a retile. Sorting it early keeps the job simple. Around Lathbury, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

The process
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a small place like Lathbury, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Getting ready for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any parking rules near the property
