How we handle regrouting in Owlsmoor
Before work begins, the tiles are checked. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, because regrouting won’t fix what’s behind them. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. We work on tiled floors, bathroom wall tiles and kitchen splashbacks, and people most often call us about grout washed out of a shower and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease.
Around Owlsmoor, you will mostly find houses and bungalows, some older and some much newer. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
Every job is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Bracknell Forest.

What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself normally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, depending on how much there is to do. For a job in Owlsmoor, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any tricky access
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Owlsmoor: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Sandhurst station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you cover Owlsmoor for regrouting?

Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
What if some of my tiles are loose?
New grout can’t hold loose tiles in place. We flag any loose or hollow tiles before starting, so you can decide what to do.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, it won’t last. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.
What should I tell you?
Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Signs you need regrouting in Owlsmoor
Most grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down, especially in a shower that’s used every day.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
If you let a flat or house near Sandhurst station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Regrouting around Owlsmoor
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Homes close to St George's Church include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. If you look after a building such as Owlsmoor Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and keep the room ventilated.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.
Leave it or put it right?
With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling is a much bigger job: stripping, making good, new tiles and new grout, and often a few days without a shower. If the tiles are sound, regrouting is the simpler fix. Homes in smaller places like Owlsmoor can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before we start.

Different surfaces, different methods
Shower walls
Shower walls get wet every day, so grout there works hardest. It usually fails first.
Kitchen splashbacks
Splashback grout picks up grease and cooking stains. Stained grout is best replaced.
