Common questions in Portslade
Do you cover smaller places like Portslade?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you do regrouting in Portslade?
Yes, Portslade is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
How long will you be here?
Typically it takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Do you grout the corners?
Flexible sealant. Grout is for the joints between tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. As well as homeowners, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes, regrouting is the time to do it. Tell us the colour you’d like when you ask for a quote.
How we handle regrouting in Portslade
When grout stays dark however much you clean it, the stain is often in the grout itself. Replacing it is the lasting answer, and it’s a chance to change the colour too. We work on bathroom floors, wet rooms and tiled floors, and the jobs we see most are stained grout that cleaning won’t shift and floor grout that has worn and darkened.
In a smaller place like Portslade, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, from older cottages to newer builds. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Signs you need regrouting in Portslade
Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, which is why we check the tiles first.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Floor grout that won’t come clean
- Grout washed out of a shower
For landlords with property near Fishersgate station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

What the job involves on each surface
Corners and edges
Where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop, the joint is sealed. Grout there would crack.
Wet rooms
New grout in a wet room keeps the surface sound. It doesn’t repair failed tanking underneath.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Portslade, several properties can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and photos by email help.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured.
What sealant work cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
- A leaking shower valve or waste
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

What else we do in Portslade
Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Rinse the tiles after showering
Before we leave, you’ll know when the shower can be used. Stick to that time, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left for a few years, they can become a leak so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
Regrouting in Portslade: local notes
Portslade is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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.
In the older streets around St Nicolas Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Schools such as Peter Gladwin Primary 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.
