Corners and edges
Edges are resealed while we are there, so the whole area is finished together.
Shower walls
Shower walls are the most common area we regrout. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.
Regrouting for homes and businesses in St Mary's
Grout fills the gaps between tiles, and sealant is what goes along the bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water has a way in behind the tiling. We rake it out and replace it, then reseal the corners and edges. If you have kitchen splashback grout stained by grease and stained grout that cleaning won’t shift, we can help.
Around St Mary's, you’ll mostly find houses and bungalows, some older and some much newer. Bathrooms and kitchens here get the same daily wear as anywhere, and the sealant and grout show it first.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in St Mary's and everywhere else we cover.

How the visit works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. For a job in St Mary's, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Move anything stored near the joints

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Check the corner silicone every few months
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it cures fully. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and let the room air.
Stains that will not clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. At this point it’s a simple regrout while the tiles are still sound.
FAQs for St Mary's
Is St Mary's within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Southampton Central station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Yes, in most cases. Fresh grout next to old, mouldy silicone would look odd and could still leak.
How long does the job take?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. We’ll tell you when we quote.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
What should I tell you?
A short description and the location, plus photos if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Regrouting around St Mary's
St Mary's is within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. St Mary's has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
Schools such as Hope Community School Southampton are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Letting a property close to Southampton Central station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Common problems we fix in St Mary's
Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. Loose tiles, bouncy floors and timber walls can all do it, which is why we check the tiles first.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Shower grout that has worn away
For an older house near a landmark such as St Mary's Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
