Regrouting in New Town, Oxfordshire
Our applicators work in New Town on raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
Regrouting in New Town
Before we start, the tiles are checked. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, since new grout cannot fix a problem underneath. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. If you have discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and cracked grout along the bath or tray, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
For a small place like New Town, regrouting is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
If you manage several properties in or around New Town, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and photos by email help.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Surface by surface
Bathroom floors
New floor grout makes a big difference to how a bathroom looks. The edges where floor meets wall or bath get silicone.
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the whole floor gets wet, so good grout is important. We check for loose tiles before starting.

What we’re called out for in New Town
A bathroom that stays damp keeps the grout wet, giving mould a place to grow. Black marks that come back after cleaning are often in the grout itself.
The most common problems we see are:
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Shower grout that has worn away
Letting a property close to Pangbourne station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

Leave it or put it right?
Bleach can lighten stained grout for a while, but stains and mould that have soaked in tend to return. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. In a small place like New Town, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

New Town homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Schools such as Basildon C.E. Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. In the older streets around St Stephen's Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

New Town: your questions answered
Can you do regrouting in New Town?
Yes, New Town is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes. Many clients do. Darker grout can hide marks, while lighter grout brightens a room.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Usually, yes. The corners and edges should be silicone and doing both at once leaves everything sound.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
When can I use the shower again?
The wait depends on the materials and how warm the room is. We’ll give you a time to follow when the job is done.
The process
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll 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 New Town, 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
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
