Regrouting in St Leonards, Hampshire
Raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors for homeowners, landlords and businesses in St Leonards. ARBOMaster approved applicators, fully insured, with a one-year guarantee.
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Stained grout that cleaning will not shift
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the 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.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Regrouting in St Leonards
Stained, crumbling or cracked grout can make a sound bathroom look tired. Regrouting replaces the grout and keeps the tiles you have, so there’s no stripping out and no new tiles to choose. Typical jobs include shower grout that has worn away and floor grout that has worn and darkened, across tiled floors, bathroom floors and kitchen splashbacks.
In a smaller place like St Leonards, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, from older cottages to newer builds. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

When it is not the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.
What we seal
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Bathroom floors
- Wet rooms
- Shower walls
- Tiled floors
- Bathroom wall tiles
Why deal with it now?
Patching a few joints can look like a quick win, but patched grout rarely matches the rest, and the old grout keeps failing around them. Doing the full area gives you one colour and sound joints throughout. Homes in smaller places like St Leonards can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

What else we do in St Leonards
St Leonards: your questions answered
What guarantee comes with regrouting in St Leonards?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Is St Leonards within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in a moving joint soon cracks.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. As well as homeowners, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels across Hampshire.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Do the sealants smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
The process
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a smaller place like St Leonards, 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.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

When to call us in St Leonards
Grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble and showers that get daily use suffer most.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
Homes close to All Saints include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

St Leonards homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you look after a building such as St Ives Primary & Nursery School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
Use a gentle cleaner on the grout and a soft brush. Keep harsh bleach and acid limescale removers away from it because they wear grout away.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. Once that happens, regrouting won’t fix it, so it’s worth acting early.
What the job involves on each surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Grout by the basin and bath tends to mark first. We can do part of a wall or all of it.
Shower walls
Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Gaps here let water get behind the tiling.
