Regrouting in Sandford
A bathroom with good tiles can still look worn if the grout has gone. With regrouting, the tiles stay and only the grout is renewed, so nothing is ripped out. If you have grout that’s cracking and breaking up and good tiles let down by tired grout, we can help, on tiled floors, bathroom floors and kitchen splashbacks alike.
Being in a small place like Sandford makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
Every job is covered by a one-year guarantee.

How the visit works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. It normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a small place like Sandford, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on

What the job involves on each surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Tiles away from the shower stay drier but still stain and crack. New grout freshens them up.
Corners and edges
We reseal edges at the same time as regrouting, so the whole area is finished together.
When to call us in Sandford
Grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble and showers that get daily use suffer most.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Floor grout that will not come clean
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
For an older house near a landmark such as All Saints' Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is
- What insurance they hold
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How hidden problems are handled
Regrouting around Sandford
Sandford is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. 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.
Rented homes near Shanklin station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. If you look after a building such as Godshill Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Sandford is about 5 miles south-east of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. Homes, rented property, offices and hotels in Sandford can book us for regrouting, old or new, large or small. Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee. Sandford is one of 125 places in the Isle of Wight we cover. There’s also a page for Portsmouth, roughly 14 miles from Sandford.

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

What happens if it’s left?
New grout smeared over the old doesn’t bond well. A thin skin on top tends to break off, taking any repair with it. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. Around Sandford, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Sandford: your questions answered
I let a flat near Shanklin station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you cover smaller places like Sandford?
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.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we are fully insured.
What if some of my tiles are loose?
Tiles that have come away need sorting first. We’ll point them out at the start.
Do you guarantee regrouting?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee, and we are fully insured.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Opening a window helps.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A leaking shower valve or waste
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
