What happens on the day
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a smaller place like St. Ebbes, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Clear the area around the work

How we handle regrouting in St. Ebbes
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 there’s no stripping out and no new tiles to choose. Common call-outs are for cracked grout along the bath or tray and old grout in a dated colour, across tiled floors, shower walls and bathroom floors.
In and around St. Ebbes, older properties sit alongside newer ones. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Why it’s worth doing now in St. Ebbes
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They do not fill cracks or stop water, and stains can show through again. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. Homes in smaller places like St. Ebbes can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

What affects the quote in St. Ebbes
We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Whether the work is at height
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:
- Where the property is
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Roughly how big the job is
- Photos by email, if that is easy
We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details, and pictures are welcome.
St. Ebbes questions
I let a flat near Oxford station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Will you come out to St. Ebbes?
Yes. St. Ebbes 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.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints.
Do you grout the corners?
We use silicone in corners and along edges. Grout in a moving joint soon cracks.
Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?
New grout cannot hold loose tiles in place. We check the tiles first and tell you if any are loose or hollow so you know where you stand.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we are fully insured.
Different surfaces, different methods
Bathroom floors
Regrouting a floor brightens the whole room. The edges where floor meets wall or bath get silicone.
Kitchen splashbacks
A splashback can be regrouted without touching the worktop. The worktop edge is finished with silicone.

Do you need regrouting in St. Ebbes?
Grout that was put in corners cracks because those joints flex. Those joints should be silicone, and when they aren’t, water gets in.
Look out for these signs:
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
In the older streets around St Ebbe's Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
