Regrouting in Shorwell
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Just mention the colour you’d like when you call 0345 464 0079 or email us. We are often asked to deal with old grout in a dated colour and cracked grout along the bath or tray, on shower walls, wet rooms and bathroom floors.
Homes around Shorwell are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Isle of Wight.

Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Tiles that are chipped or split
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we seal

How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
Wipe the tiles down after a shower keeps water off the grout. Ventilate the room well to help it dry out.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. At this point it’s a simple regrout, before the joints open up.
Regrouting in Shorwell: local notes
Shorwell is within about 2 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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.
In and around Shorwell, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Shorwell questions
Do you cover smaller places like Shorwell?
Yes. Shorwell is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you do regrouting in Shorwell?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Shorwell is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you grout the corners?
Silicone. Grout is for the joints between tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?
Yes. Many jobs are just the shower walls, or just the joints that have failed.
When can I use the shower again?
We give you a time before we leave. It depends on the grout and the sealant used so please stick to it.
How much does regrouting cost in Shorwell?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing and where.
What guarantee comes with the work?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, including regrouting.
Do you need regrouting in Shorwell?
Most 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.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Stained grout that cleaning will not shift
- Old grout in a dated colour
For an older house near a landmark such as St. Peter's Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
