Surface by surface
Shower walls
Shower walls get wet every day, so its grout takes the most punishment. It generally fails first.
Wet rooms
Regrouting a wet room helps keep water on the surface of the tiles. It can’t fix waterproofing below the tiles.
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Litlington
Grout fills the gaps between tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water has a way in behind the tiling. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in, then reseal the corners and edges. We work on kitchen splashbacks, tiled floors and bathroom floors, and people most often call us about grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles.
For a small place like Litlington, regrouting is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The process
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In a small place like Litlington, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Related advice
Do you need regrouting in Litlington?
Grout that was put in corners cracks as the bath or tray moves. They need flexible sealant, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
People generally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Old grout in a dated colour
For an older house near a landmark such as The Parish Church of St Michael the Archangel, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
Before you book anyone
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- How much experience the applicator has
- What product goes in the joint
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
What happens if it’s left?
Regrouting won’t help where tiles have come away. We’ll tell you before any work starts so you know what’s involved. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting is far less disruptive than retiling. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Litlington, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.

Regrouting around Litlington
Litlington is within about 3 miles of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you look after a building such as Alfriston School, 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. Rented homes near Berwick (Sussex) station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Common questions in Litlington
Is Litlington within the area you cover?
Yes, Litlington 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.
I let a flat near Berwick (Sussex) station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Will there be a smell?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Normally, yes. The corners and edges should be silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.
Is the work guaranteed?
You get our 12-month guarantee on every job, and we’re fully insured.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Flexible sealant. Grout belongs between the tiles and moving joints need sealant.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we will tell you before we start. It will not solve:
- A leaking shower valve or waste
- Movement in a stud wall or floor
- A leaking wet room membrane
