When to call us in Lower Upham
Some grout fails because it was mixed or laid badly. If it was mixed too wet or not pressed in firmly tends to wash out early.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
Before booking anyone

- Is VAT in the price?

How we handle regrouting in Lower Upham
We check the tiles before any grout comes out. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, since new grout can’t fix a problem underneath. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. Common call-outs are for floor grout that won’t come clean and a grout colour that no longer suits the room, on bathroom wall tiles, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms.
Being in a small place like Lower Upham makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What affects the cost of regrouting
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- How we’d reach the joints
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- If someone has resealed it before
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.
How the visit works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The job generally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, including the tidy-up. In a small place like Lower Upham, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.
How to prepare
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the work
- Tell us about any water getting in

Advice
Bathrooms and kitchens in Lower Upham
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Managing a site like Upham Church of England Aided 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. Letting a property close to Hedge End station? Then clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
Check the corner silicone now and then. It’s the part that moves, so it’s usually the first thing to need attention.
Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
Surface by surface
Shower walls
Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.
Wet rooms
Wet room grout and sealant need to be in good order. We replace the grout and reseal the edges.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lower Upham
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Lower Upham and across Hampshire. Several sites can go on one quote.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can be quoted together.
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
