What regrouting looks like in Steeple Barton
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.
Rented homes near Heyford station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Managing a site like Middle Barton Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What happens if it’s left?
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They will not fill gaps or keep water out, and stains can show through again. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. In a small place like Steeple Barton, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Steeple Barton questions
Do you cover smaller places like Steeple Barton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you cover Steeple Barton for regrouting?
Yes, Steeple Barton is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, including the preparation. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
In most cases, yes. The corners and edges should be silicone and doing both at once leaves everything sound.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
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. Everything old must be removed first.

Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
Wipe the tiles down after a shower keeps water off the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window so the grout dries between uses.
Stains that won’t clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. At this point it’s a simple regrout while the tiles are still sound.
