About our regrouting in Milstead
Most regrouting jobs include resealing too. Grout is for the joints between tiles, but corners and edges move, so they need flexible silicone instead. Doing both at once leaves the whole area sound. If you are dealing with dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor and grout that makes sound tiles look old, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Around Milstead, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

When to call us in Milstead
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down over time, leaving the joints sunken and rough.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
Homes close to Church of St Mary and the Holy Cross include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
- A leaking wet room membrane
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How the job changes by surface
Corners and edges
Edges are resealed while we are there, so the whole area is finished together.
Wet rooms
Regrouting a wet room helps keep water on the surface of the tiles. It doesn’t repair failed tanking underneath.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
Clean the grout with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft brush. Keep harsh bleach and acid limescale removers away from it because they wear grout away.
Grout that is washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Each shower drives water into the open joints and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.
Why act early in Milstead
Cleaning products may brighten grout for a time, but stains and mould that have soaked in tend to return. Replacing the grout and resealing the edges is a lasting fix. Around Milstead, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
