Regrouting in Steeple View, done properly
We check the tiles before any grout comes out. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, because regrouting won’t fix what’s behind them. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. Common call-outs are for cracked grout along the bath or tray and floor grout that won’t come clean, on kitchen splashbacks, wet rooms and tiled floors.
In and around Steeple View, older properties sit alongside newer ones. Older homes can move a little with the seasons, which is hard on tired sealant and rigid grout.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Steeple View: your questions answered
I let a flat near Laindon station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is Steeple View within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
What does regrouting cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.
Signs you need regrouting in Steeple View
Grout that was put in corners cracks as the bath or tray moves. They need flexible sealant, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
- Grout in corners that has cracked
Managing a site like Millhouse Primary School? Then 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
- What preparation is included
- How hidden problems are handled
- How long to leave it before use
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
When it is not the sealant
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- A leaking shower valve or waste
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Bathroom floors
- Tiled floors
- Shower walls
- Wet rooms
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Kitchen splashbacks
Leave it or put it right?
Bleach can lighten stained grout for a while, but mould that has got into grout generally comes back. Replacing the grout and resealing the edges is a lasting fix. Around Steeple View, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Why us?
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- ARBOMaster approved applicator
- 20+ years of sealant experience

Steeple View homes and their sealant
Steeple View is part of Basildon, one of the post-war new towns. With many homes dating from the post-war decades, plenty of bathrooms have been resealed or refitted more than once. Sealant laid over old sealant never bonds properly, so it all has to come out. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Letting a property close to Laindon station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. Homes close to Church of St Nicholas include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Surface by surface
Bathroom floors
Floor grout takes foot traffic as well as water. It gets worn and dirty.
Shower walls
Shower walls are the most common area we regrout. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.
What happens on the day
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. A visit to Steeple View is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- 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.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
