Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and let the room air.
If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.
Regrouting in Lower Basildon, done properly
Across Lower Basildon, we regrout tiled showers, bathrooms and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, and we finish by resealing the edges. Typical jobs include splashback grout that has darkened and grout washed out of a shower, on kitchen splashbacks, shower walls and tiled floors.
Around Lower Basildon, it’s 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.
Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

Different surfaces, different methods
Corners and edges
We reseal edges at the same time as regrouting, so the whole area is finished together.
Kitchen splashbacks
We can regroute a splashback with the kitchen left in place. The worktop edge is finished with silicone.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Why it’s worth doing now in Lower Basildon
Cracked grout lets water behind the tiles. Left alone, that water can loosen tiles or damage the wall, and then you are looking at retiling. Sorting it early keeps the job simple. In a small place like Lower Basildon, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.

What affects the cost of regrouting
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- Access and height
- When we can work, for business premises
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
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. The price is agreed before we begin.
What we need to know
When you contact us, these details help:
- The problem you’ve noticed

- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

Common questions in Lower Basildon
Will you come out to Lower Basildon?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Goring & Streatley station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?
New grout cannot hold loose tiles in place. We flag any loose or hollow tiles before starting, so you can decide what to do.
How much does regrouting cost in Lower Basildon?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Most of the time, yes. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so both are renewed and it’s all in the quote.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes. With the old grout removed, the new colour fills the whole joint rather than sitting on top.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
What happens on the day
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. In a small place like Lower Basildon, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

Regrouting in Lower Basildon: local notes
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.
In the older streets around St Bartholomew's Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Rented homes near Goring & Streatley station change hands often, and stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
