About our regrouting in Newtown
Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water can get in behind the tiles. We rake it out and replace it and renew the silicone at the edges. We work on kitchen splashbacks, bathroom floors and bathroom wall tiles, and people most often call us about cracked or crumbling grout lines and grout in corners that has cracked.
Somewhere as small as Newtown, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

Leave it or put it right?
Regrouting won’t help where tiles have come away. We point that out first so you know what’s involved. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. Around Newtown, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Surface by surface
Bathroom floors
Grout on a floor is walked on as well as wetted. It wears and darkens over time.
Corners and edges
Internal corners move, so they get silicone, not grout.
What happens on the day
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, including the tidy-up. Somewhere like Newtown needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Your questions about regrouting in Newtown
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Portchester station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Newtown?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?
The wait depends on the materials and how warm the room is. We’ll tell you exactly how long when the job is done.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
How long will you be here?
That depends on the amount of work, but as a guide it takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
Do you grout the corners?
Corners get silicone, not grout. They flex, and grout there cracks.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.

Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- The type of sealant required

What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- The type of property
- A few photos by email, if you can
- If someone has resealed it before
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Regrouting around Newtown
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Homes close to Church of the Holy Trinity include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For landlords with property near Portchester station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
Schools such as Newtown Soberton Infant School are buildings too, and 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.
