Regrouting in Slough
Raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Slough. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. It’s the part that moves, so it’s usually the first thing to need attention, long before the grout does.
Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Slough
Grout fills the gaps between tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water has a way in behind the tiling. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in, then reseal the corners and edges. If you are dealing with grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and grout that’s cracking and breaking up, we can help, on bathroom floors, bathroom wall tiles and shower walls alike.
Slough is big enough to have housing from every era, from period houses to modern flats and estates. Whatever the age of the home, sealant and grout in bathrooms and kitchens wear out in the end.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

When to call us in Slough
Grout that was put in corners cracks because those joints flex. Those joints should be silicone, and when they aren’t, water gets in.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
If you look after a building such as Herschel Grammar School, 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.
What your quote should include
- How much experience the applicator has
- What insurance they hold
- What preparation is included
- Is VAT in the price?
Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. In Slough, we work in everything from flats and family homes to offices and hotels. For each, it helps to know about access, parking and where the joints are.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
Before we arrive
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a quote
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that’s easy.
Related advice
What happens if it’s left?
Once grout cracks, water can get behind the tiling. Leave it, and the adhesive or the wall behind can suffer, which turns a regrout into a retile. Dealing with it now keeps it small. For businesses in Slough, a room closed because of a leak or mould costs more than the sealant, so failing joints are best replaced on a planned basis.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts.

What regrouting looks like in Slough
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Slough. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Slough station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. If you live in an older home near St Michael and All Angels, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
