- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Parking around Lightwater is generally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
- Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
- We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.
Preparing for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

How we handle regrouting in Lightwater
If you’ve been scrubbing grout that will not come clean, the discolouration has normally soaked into the grout. Replacing it is the lasting answer and you can pick a different colour while you’re at it. If you have greasy, stained grout behind the hob and grout stained black or orange that won’t clean, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
In and around Lightwater, older properties sit alongside newer ones. Older homes can move a little with the seasons, which is hard on tired sealant and rigid grout.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

What the job involves on each surface
Kitchen splashbacks
Grout behind the hob and sink works hard. We renew the grout and the worktop sealant.
Shower walls
Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Gaps here let water get behind the tiling.
Landlord and commercial work in Lightwater
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will quote.
Lightwater homes and their sealant
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.
Letting a property close to Bagshot station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. Schools such as Hammond School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Lightwater: your questions answered
Is Lightwater within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Bagshot station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Is the work guaranteed?
You get our 12-month guarantee on every job. We’re also fully insured.
How long does regrouting take?
It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. We will tell you when we quote.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
Most of the time, yes. Grout fills tile gaps and sealant handles the moving joints, so both are renewed and it’s all in the quote.
Will regrouting fix loose tiles?
Loose or hollow tiles are a sign of a problem behind them. Grout on its own will not fix that, and we will tell you before any work starts.
Aftercare tips
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
Wipe the tiles down after a shower keeps water off the grout. Ventilate the room well so the grout dries between uses.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. At this point it’s a simple regrout while the tiles are still sound.

When to call us in Lightwater
Soap scum and limescale build up on grout and stick to it. In time the grout under it darkens and breaks down, which is when replacing it makes sense.
The most common problems we see are:
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
If you live in an older home near All Saints, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

How we quote for regrouting
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- Access and height
- The number of rooms or windows
- When we can work, for business premises
- The old material and how stubborn it is
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
Asking for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work before giving you a price.
Leave it or put it right?
Cracked grout lets water behind the tiles. Leave it, and the adhesive or the wall behind can suffer, and then you’re looking at retiling. Sorting it early keeps the job simple. In an older home around Lightwater, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.
