About our regrouting in Sharpthorne
We work across Sharpthorne, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, and we finish by resealing the edges. Typical jobs include dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor and grout that makes sound tiles look old, on kitchen splashbacks, bathroom floors and wet rooms.
Somewhere as small as Sharpthorne, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee.

The process
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. In a small place like Sharpthorne, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- 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.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Do you need regrouting in Sharpthorne?
Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it over time, until the joints are rough and low.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Stained grout that cleaning will not shift
Letting a property close to East Grinstead station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is chosen
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What happens if the job turns out different
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
How we quote for regrouting
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How many areas need sealing
- The product the joint needs
- Working hours on commercial sites
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
Asking for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- The address or postcode of the job
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
Wipe the tiles down after a shower keeps water off the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window to help it dry out.
Grout that’s washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Each shower drives water into the open joints and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.

What else we do in Sharpthorne
Bathrooms and kitchens in Sharpthorne
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as West Hoathly CofE Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near St Margaret's Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

FAQs for Sharpthorne
Do you work for landlords with property near East Grinstead station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you cover Sharpthorne for regrouting?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Sharpthorne is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured for every job we do.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator, and we are fully insured.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Most of the time, yes. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so we renew both and it’s all in the quote.
Do you grout the corners?
Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in a moving joint soon cracks.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location, with pictures by email if possible. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes, plenty of people choose to. A darker grout hides marks better and lighter grout gives a fresher look.
What happens if it’s left?
It’s tempting to fill a few cracks yourself, but patched grout rarely matches the rest and the old grout carries on failing. Regrouting the whole area gives an even, lasting finish. Around Sharpthorne, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.
